While we certainly welcome one-time donations, please consider an automatic monthly donation which allows NCFF to better budget and pay for our clinics throughout the entire year.
Your gift will have a direct impact on improving the lives and health of our community’s outside cats, ultimately reducing the numbers of homeless cats and decreasing the number that are killed in our shelters every year. As a result of our efforts and your support, we have also greatly increased the number of adoptions of neutered/spayed feral kittens.
Supporting NCFF through an automatic monthly gift is a fantastic investment! Your donation is tax deductible. Remember, 100% of your donation goes directly to helping our community’s needy cats. Making an automatic monthly donation allows NCFF to put your hard-earned money to work for the cats instead of toward constant fundraising efforts. We promise not to deluge you with donation solicitations!

Volunteer
We are always looking for volunteers to assist with our monthly TNR days. Here are some ways you can help:
Fill out the volunteer application linked above then email to
Cindy Fravel at cfravel@sapprovider.com.
Trapping
Trappers are needed to go to colonies, set humane traps with bait, cover traps as soon as cats are trapped, and transport them to our clinic to await surgery. Traps are always covered and traps are never left unattended.
Transporting
Volunteers with moderately large vehicles are needed to transport cats to clinics and back to the recuperation area. After recovery, cats need to be transported back to their colonies and released.
Veterinary Technicians
Clinics are held at least monthly and veterinary technicians are needed to assist our veterinarians with induction, surgical prep, surgery, and recovery. Our ferals receive the same standard of care as any socialized, client-owned cat. They have been through enough in their lives already and deserve the best medical care we can afford to give them!
Foster Homes
Foster homes are often needed for under-socialized kittens and strays awaiting adoption homes. All fosters go through our partner Animal Rescue of the Rockies.
RELOCATING / ADOPTING FERAL CATS
For Feral Cats Needing Homes
Northern Colorado Friends of Ferals only relocates feral cats when there is no other choice and the cats are either no longer being fed or in danger of being rounded up by animal control groups and killed. Feral cats are attached to their territories and those who are feeding them. What looks like an unpleasant living place to us is what the cats call home. They are at home in alleys, junkyards, vacant lots, and urban areas. Relocating is extremely stressful and there are no guarantees that the cats will be safer, happier, or even survive in a new location. It is difficult for us to find barn homes as there are more cats in need than there are barn homes to accommodate them.
For Barn Homes Needing Feral Cats
Feral cats often provide a valuable service in keeping down the rodent population. If you feel you can provide a home in return for mousers, please contact Leslie Vogt at 970-224-1467.
We do not charge for the feral cats we place in barn homes. However, we do require that you feed them regularly. It helps them to be better hunters and keeps them at home on your property. If you decide that you can provide a barn home for two or more feral cats we ask the following:
- That you adopt at least two feral cats (at the same time from the same colony), so that not everything in their world is totally new and scary.
- That you keep them contained somehow in a feed room, or tack room for three weeks or more until they get used to the routine around your place, the comings and goings, the noises, and the other animals that may be present.
- During this time they will begin to associate you with good things, such as food.
- After a few weeks, they may decide that this is their new home and stick around instead of just fleeing in panic when you let them out.
- It is normal for them to hide in the barn for a while until they learn to trust their new caretaker.
- That you continue to feed them regularly and provide medical care in emergencies.
