FoFF is committed to helping feral cats in southern Maine. Our mission is to humanely reduce the number of feral cats in our communities through trapping, neutering, and then releasing them back to their colony sites (a method called Trap-Neuter-Return or TNR). In time, the colonies’ populations shrink due to lack of reproduction. We provide the colonies with food and water regularly and monitor them for new, sick, or injured members who need medical attention. We also find barn homes for some of the cats, and we foster and socialize kittens to prepare them for adoption. Our efforts include public education and fundraising to support the ongoing need for food and medical care.
FoFF’s adoptable cats have been socialized from a young age in foster homes and are friendly and looking for a loving forever home. If you would like to adopt a cat from FoFF, please download and complete our Adoption Agreement form as an interactive Word document or as a PDF and submit it to us either by fax or mail. We’ll ask a few screening questions and do a brief home visit. We ask for a donation to help defray the costs of basic medical care, such as the following, that we provide before their adoption: $150 for kittens up to six months old, $125 for cats over six months old, $100 for cats over a year old. Deworming; Flea/tick/mite control; Testing for Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV); Vaccination for major feline diseases (Rabies and Distemper); Spaying / neutering.
