Outreach

Cattitude Team

The Humane Ohio Cattitude Team does Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) in neighborhoods throughout the area. Teams of volunteers go together with traps; we use our transport van to take the cats back to Humane Ohio. We return the cats back to the neighborhood and their outdoor homes the day after spay/neuter surgery.

The Cattitude Team prevents unwanted litters from growing up on the streets or entering overcrowded animal shelters where they’ll be at risk for euthanasia. For more information, click here or email cats@humaneohio.org

Spay Patrol Walks

Our staff leads a team of volunteers door-to-door in target neighborhoods (walking in pairs) to deliver flyers, raise awareness for our low-cost spay/neuter clinic and schedule spay/neuter appointments for owned pets and free-roaming cats. These walks are an opportunity to have fun, exercise, connect with other animal lovers and help prevent unwanted litters.

Transport

We partner with animal shelters, rescue groups, animal control organizations, neighborhoods, social service agencies and businesses in the Toledo area and beyond to schedule transports of animals in need of spay/neuter to and from Humane Ohio. This is a great way for us to offer low-cost spay/neuter to communities in outlying areas, and to offer transportation locally to pet parents and free-roaming cat caretakers who might not have access to transportation or whose schedule prevents them from coming to Humane Ohio directly. See our transport page for more information.
