TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return)

We at NOKHS are dedicated to improve the lives of companion animals in our community and finding permanent and loving adoptive homes for the cats and dogs in our care. We provide a safe haven for animals in transition, serve as advocates for animals and their people, work to end animal overpopulation and educate the public about compassion and responsibility towards all animals. We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that does not receive any government funding and relies on the good will and generosity of individuals, corporations, and adopters.

We strive to end the suffering of street births, one litter at a time through humane TNVR (trap/neuter/vaccinate/return). We pull viable kittens for socializing, vetting and adoption!

We are a team of compassionate cat ladies. We promote spaying, neutering, TNR, humane education, helping those who are unable to help themselves and that local shelters reject. There are so many unwanted cats and kittens in Linn County and we try to make a difference. Each of us has a place in the group where we can help the most and we are elated when a cat from a horrid situation finds a beautiful loving forever home.

Hello! My name is Renee and I have always loved animals dearly. My first pet was actually a duck we saved from slaughter. I was 4 years old, so I am not sure you could call it my pet. I love animals, and you can always find me following the animals around at parties. I am that person. I always have been. My first actual pet was a cat named Sam, or Sammie. He is the name sake of this rescue, and this rescue embodies the spirit of who he was. He loved kittens and always bonded to at least one. Even if he was a crabby old man, the kittens brought out the young man in him and always brightened his world. He was an extraordinary cat who everyone loved. He was my best friend, and honestly, my protector. He was my emotional support animal and was there when I needed him, most times before I even knew that I needed him. He was so in tune with me that he would care for and comfort me when I was sick or in pain. He was unlike any other. I started this rescue in his name, due to his love and my love of kittens and cats in need. Especially kittens and young cats. I focus heavily on adoptable cats caught through TNR that otherwise would be breeding and left outside, when they can be brought inside and adopted. They are a simple resolution to a complex issue. The more adoptable cats I can get off the streets and altered, the better. Another special mission of mine is pregnant mom cats and kittens found outside. I find them the most vulnerable, and they hold a special place in my heart. This season, I recently delivered my first litter of kittens, and I find it to be my most proud accomplishment. It was not an uncomplicated delivery or litter early on. They all had their issues, and so did the delivery and mom cat. Everyone is happy and healthy now, and finally ready for adoption, but I am so proud of how far they have all come. I try to go back to colonies and TNR where cats came from to reduce population growth, or at least let other larger organizations I work with know about them so that they can be helped. I believe in closing that loop, so all cats are helped and no one is left behind. As a small rescue, sometimes it is hard to do, alone.

Pippi’s Place Pet Rescue is a non-profit volunteer organization dedicated to reducing the number of unwanted cats and kittens through the support of local Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) programs as well as placement of available felines in permanent homes. We will rescue animals who are homeless due to owner surrender, endangered due to abandonment/neglect/abuse, and those at risk of being euthanized at area shelters. We will place feline companions in loving homes following a comprehensive screening process which includes ensuring a good match between the animal and prospective adopter as well as educating potential adopters about the responsibilities associated with bringing a cat into their home. All cats and kittens will be spayed or neutered, receive appropriate veterinary care including any necessary treatment, and will be placed in caring foster homes until the time of adoption. We will work closely with local shelters and other rescue organizations to promote the importance of spaying/neutering companion animals. We will work with these agencies to develop a network of supporters and volunteers so that we may create a better world for homeless animals.

We provide safe, loving foster homes for kitten's and pregnant cats in need. Full vetting is supplied and when ready those are placed up for adoption. Our mission to to help alleviate kittens / pregnant cats from reaching a shelter environment which also prevents these cats from being euthanized.
