Jan's Feral Colony

This is a managed feral colony in the Silicon Valley area of California. The cats in this colony have been or are scheduled to go through a TTVAR (trap, test, vaccinate, alter, release) program. We use the Humane Society of Santa Clara Valley's spay/neuter clinic for this program.

The colony manager is a member of Silicon Valley Friends of Ferals, an organization working to alleviate the suffering and overpopulation of feral and stray cats by implementing TTVAR programs in the Silicon Valley Area, and rescuing tame and socializable cats into adoptive homes.

Some of the tamer cats in this colony are ready to be placed in foster homes or permanent homes. All of these cats would need to be in an indoor-only home since they are former feral cats and would be likely to stray from their new homes if let outside. If you can provide a loving home for any one of these cats please contact jan@panix.com.

Relatively Tame Cats

These cats are wild, but have been worked with extensively to acclimate them to the presence of people. This has all been outdoors, so they still need either a transitional handler or an understanding home. Some were probably owned at some time and others have always lived on the streets.

Wild Side of the Street

These cats are too wild to expect them to be placed at this time.

They are accustomed to being near a human who is filling food and water dishes, but are generally not within reach.

The Silent Colony

These kitties are no longer in the colony. Some are known to be dead and others have just stopped showing up for a long time.
