Our Mission

Street Cat Hub is a 501(c)3 Nonprofit dedicated to humane population control of free-roaming community cats through Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR). TNR is the only method proven to be both humane and effective in addressing this community issue. Street Cat HUB’s founder and current Board President, Jayne Sage, began trapping community cats in her neighborhood in 2001. She started a trap loan program in 2009 to expand services beyond her immediate area. In 2012, Best Friends provided funding for a startup program based out of Jayne’s property, and by design, Best Friends exited the program in 2014.

Street cat Hub was founded on August 5, 2014, with a mission to serve the city of Albuquerque and surrounding areas with the spay and neuter of free-roaming feral and community cats. Street Cat Hub partners with the City of Albuquerque, Bernalillo County and the Town of Bernalillo to provide TNR services to any free-roaming cat in these areas. Municipal funding supports just over half of the 6,000 cats through our program each year, with the remainder of funds coming from individual donors, grants, and corporate sponsorships. The TNR program has contributed to a significant reduction in cat euthanasia in City shelters, which experienced a 97% reduction between 2009 and 2019.
