Rescue groups

[nancys]

Has anyone ever heard of a group called Alley Cat Allies or Alley Cat Rescue? I have been getting letters from them wanting donations and I would like to donate, but want to find out more abt. them first.

I THINK ALLEY CAT ALLIES ARE FROM CHICAGO, BUT I AM NOT SURE.
I THINK THAT IF YOU PUT THOSE NAMES IN A SEARCH ENGINE , THAT YOU WILL GET THE RIGHT INFORMATION!

Alley Cat Allies is legit, but you might want to do more research to verify how much money they receive from donations actually goes to rescue. They specialize in TNR.

Alley Cat Allies is based in Maryland, Baltimore, I beleive. They started teh TNRM programs in an aggressive way, and were able to show that is works. They are now sort of a "parent" organization, helping local groups get organized all over the country. The group I did TNRM with, PawsWatch, is closely affiliated with ACA. ACA sends folks out to give seminars, and I think they also have a legislative branch now.

Here is their web site:
