CARMA is an all volunteer registered charity whose mandate is to humanely address the community cat overpopulation crisis through our Trap-Neuter-Return program. 

Our TNR program means that our trapping volunteers are out in the community offering frontline help to community cats who are considered wild or feral and who for the most part are not adoptable. During instances where a cat or cats are deemed to be friendly strays, CARMA will make every effort to help remove those cats from community life by accessing other resources such as our local shelters. 

Our first step is to ensure that there is a caregiver present that can sign a waiver that the cats will have regular access to food, shelter and water. If there is no caregiver that is able to provide for the cats, we place them in another location using a transition process. We work very closely with the community to ensure that these cats will be taken care of and that they will live as healthy and happy as possible. 

CARMA looks for opportunities to help create awareness by offering information on the work that we do and why we do it through postings on our facebook page and presentations in the community.

Due to the present pandemic we are unable to fundraise as we normally would, year-round. Requests are continuing to come in daily for assistance from the community, and we depend on donations in order to pay for the supplies we need. Vet bills, along with food and litter for our fosters and shelters that are placed around the community are our biggest expenses. 

We are committed to helping stray and feral cats in a humane way by reducing suffering within cat colonies and helping community members by reducing the amount of kittens born each year, and providing them with shelters and food when possible.
