We received generous donations over the past week (and today!) Thank you so much for your generosity. The supplies are much needed and we are so thankful to have such a supportive community.
Mr. Fifi has started running to âhelpâ the community member who cares for him whenever she works on the computer! She says his professional feedback skews toward taking snack breaks.
Mr. FiFi is between 3-5 years old and is a gentle laidback guy who likes to look out the window and gives gentle headbutts when itâs time for attention. He has chronic dry eye that will likely always require eyedrops, but he is otherwise healthy, UTD, neutered and FIV/FELV negative. He gets overwhelmed by exuberant youth of the human and non human variety but does well with patience and slow intros.

Chloe and Butters sure are! The community members caring for them say that Chloe is a sweet lap cat while Butters the tux is an independent and dignified gentleman. Cleo is around 3, and Butters is 5.
While these two came from the same home and are still tolerating each other, they are not bonded and do not need to stay together.
Are you interested in welcoming Chloe or Butters? Let us know here!

Operation Snip was started by former Troy City Council President, Lynn Kopka, in March of 2012. What began as a Trap-Neuter-Return program for feral cats living throughout Troyâs abandoned buildings and alleyways, it has morphed into providing loving homes to friendly cats & kittens also found on the streets.
Our adoptable cats are available through a number of cat adoption groups. If you wish to give a cat a forever home, many of our cats go to Whiskers in Albany and Noahâs Kingdom, or check the clinics at Healthy Pet Center, Petco and PetSmart. You can also send us a message if youâd like to adopt a cat featured on our page! There are so many wonderful cats looking for a home that you will certainly find just the right cat for you and your family.
We operate solely by donation and fundraisers. If you would like to donate:
Donations to Operation Snip can be made through the Washington Park Association of Troy, N.Y. Please write the checks payable to: âFriends of Washington Park.â You must write âSnipâ in the memo.
