Join the fun while supporting 2 great causes! 
Mark your calendars for August 3rd from 4:00 pm to 7:00 pm to attend "A Day at The Park" event to support Operation Hood and Relay for Life Cancer Society! Two great charities coming together to raise awareness and funding to support their cause! Interested in attending the event? Scan the QR code on the flyer making a $30 donation! Funds raised for Operation Hood will go back into our community in support of community cats and our TNR program! Operation Hood also maintains and cares for a colony of cats who live at a safe haven we refer to as "The Fence."  The cats who live at The Fence are cared for daily and receive medical care as well. Funding raised for Rely for Life Cancer Society goes towards supportive medical care and needs of those fighting cancer! We appreciate the support our community gives in an effort to make life for individuals who need help and the lives of community cats better!
​Thank you! 
IMPORTANT NOTICE
  Operation Hood has been inundated with TNR Requests.  We are currently working on a backlog of requests.  If you need assistance we ask that you submit a TNR Request form so we will know best how to proceed. The form describes the process of coordinating a TNR Plan that includes way you can help. We need the support from the community to help make a difference in the lives of community cats! There are many areas that assistance when coordinating a TNR project in order to pull it all together. If you are interested in learning more on how you can help, please click below to learn more!

 Operation Hood truly appreciates the support and generosity of our followers. We are thankful to be part of such an amazing community that enables us to help community cats. Here we have one of our kitties Toretto who lives at "The Fence" a safe haven created for the kitties who were relocated from Hood Drive in 2016. Toretto is a ham when it comes to attention. He loves to follow us around as we care for the kitty's daily just to watch and be part of the teamwork! During the summer he can be found playing in the water bowls or chasing a stream of water from a bowl that has been overfilled! Silly Toretto we sure do love you and your friends! Check out our Wishlist link below if you'd like to donate! Thank you! 
One of our trappers got this little one while working on a TNR Project. Sadly, this is the case for many kittens born in the wild due to female cats that are left un-spayed. It is not the best life for kittens who come into the world defenseless and are left to deal with the elements of the weather, etc.  Your support enables us to save lives like this little one! Thank you for your support and kindness and joining us on this amazing journey in making a difference in the lives of community cats! #communitycatsFXBG 

WHO WE ARE

​Operation Hood is a non-profit all volunteer organization that works with the community to help control the overpopulation of community cats through our TNR program.  We depend on community support for funding to assist with the TNR costs and veterinary care of the cats who were previously rescued from Hood Drive, and currently reside within a safe haven area we refer to as “The Fence."

With on going efforts to assist the community with TNR we appreciate any and ALL help given working on TNR efforts that impact and make a difference not only in the lives of the cats but also in our community.  Working together we can help control the over population and needless litters of kittens born outdoors that face uncertainties that outdoor life may bring. These are just a few videos of releases from TNR projects that individual's just like you have taken a part in!  Together we can do more and make an impact! Join us on our journey to help make a difference in the lives of community cats! 

Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is only method proven to be humane and effective at controlling community cat population growth.

HOW TO HELP

You can help us, help them.
You can be part of our mission to save cats and provide them with a loving environment, medical care and the necessities for a thriving life.

THE CATS WE HELP

community ∙ the "Fence" safe haven ∙ risk of euthanasia

Operation Hood receives an influx of requests for various TNR (Trap, Neuter, RETURN) projects. Many requests ask that we remove the cats from the area or if we can take them in at the Fence. The Fence currently is occupied by cats that were rescued from Hood Drive and is at capacity.  Therefore, we are not able to take in cats at this time. We are aware there are circumstances in which a cat cannot be returned to the area it was trapped due to various reasons. We are able to assist with trapping of cats, having them spayed/neutered (as  funding allows) and then RETURN them to the location they were trapped where a caretaker will resume with providing shelter, water and food daily.
