MRFRS was founded in 1992 in response to growth in the feral or homeless cat population along the Merrimack River in Newburyport. This growth resulted in widespread disease, malnutrition, and death in the feral cat population which endangered the health and well-being of Newburyport’s residential cat population. The MRFRS began a trap, neuter, and return (TNR) program for these cats in 1992 with feeding stations where the cats are fed twice a day.
Today our programs include:
A no-kill adoption center at our headquarters in Salisbury, MA. Since 1992, we have placed over 18,000 cats and kittens into new homes.
A mobile low-cost spay/neuter clinics for owned cats called the Catmobile. Since the inception of the Catmobile program in 2008, we have fixed over 45,000 cats across Massachusetts and Southern New Hampshire.
A monthly feral spay/neuter clinic in collaboration with MSPCA Nevins Farm. Since this program began, it has spayed/neutered over 11,000 feral cats.
FARS and Captain Courageous Fund -- programs that provide low-cost medical care to owned and feral/stray cats, respectively.
Low-cost rabies vaccination clinics, held three times a year.
