We all wear a variety of hats and we are always looking for special people who share our vision to be able to help is in a myriad of ways! We want to be an organization where you feel your voice will be heard and each and every one of our thoughtful volunteers matters!
TIPS - TNR of Clark County may be a new kid on the block, but we have been dreaming and working toward this for a great many years. We had a vision, and have worked hard to learn everything we can about trapping, while actively trapping independently, and learning the ropes of actually running a charity. We have spent countless hours building connections between local rescues and TNR organizations, and we have a solid plan of who we are and what we want this organization to become.
Clark County TIPS operates through partnerships with local organizations and volunteers to TNR community-owned and feral cat colonies as well as help families spay/ neuter their pets, assisting with funding and/ or transportation as needed on a case-by-case basis.
Clark County TIPS currently operates almost exclusively in Clark County, Ohio. We may help outside of the county on an emergency basis, and we help train other trappers in the Miami Valley region.
Our mission is to help the COMPLETE issue of cats in Clark County Ohio.
This comes with a multi-faceted approach using: TNR, Foster/ Adoption, Helping Sick/ Injured strays, Helping Colony Feeders with food, and Educating our community.
Our Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program focuses on sterilizing cats in the community where it is most sorely needed
Our Foster and Adoption Program gets adoptable animals out of the colonies/ off the streets and into warm, loving homes. We make sure cats and kittens are healthy, up-to-date on all vaccines, have a microchip, and are (obviously hah!) spayed or neutered prior to leaving our care.
Our Community Cat Pantry provides food to colony feeders, a community often comprised of the folks in our community that can least afford to feed so many. We also help individuals on a case-by-case basis as need arises and supplies exist.
Our Community Education Program aims to help members in the community learn how to help themselves while they are waiting for help from us. We help provide traps and training on using traps, transportation, and planning for trap days as well as educate on humane winter shelters, best feeding practices, and basic colony medical care.
Our Compassionate Care Fund helps pay part or all of the bill for cats found outside with illnesses and injuries that require veterinary intervention.
We aim to stay transparent in all aspects of our organization, so you can donate without reservation! Please message if you have any questions at all! Check our our Profile on Guidestar!
