Cats Safe at Home™
The 13th Annual Catio Tour will be September 6, 2025. Read more.
At the Feral Cat Coalition of Oregon, we believe the best option is to work collaboratively to find solutions that help cats and birds. We have worked with the Bird Alliance of Oregon for more than two decades and now welcome Bird Conservation Oregon to this unique partnership. We share a common goal of fewer cats living outdoors.
Our organizations, along with Multnomah County Animal Services and Washington County Animal Services, are working together on the Cats Safe at Home™ program where we encourage people to not let their pet cats roam free. Fewer free-roaming cats means less predation on wildlife by all cats, whether they are pets or feral cats. As importantly, it also means fewer cats born on our streets if the cats aren’t spayed/neutered. We also work with Portland Urban Coyote Project because coyotes are found all across our urban landscape and can prey on cats, but there are ways to keep cats safe and generally avoid problems with them.
By encouraging people to keep Cats Safe at Home we can bring our community together toward a safer and healthier environment for both cats and wildlife.
