The colony was a result of abandoned / cats who were born in the wild. Operation Hood has relocated all of the cats to a non-disclosed location. Local animal rescues, residents, and vets are working to improve the lives of a very large and public cat colony located in Spotsylvania, VA. There is more than 150+ cats in need of immediate help. We will not discuss the location of the site, nor will we
refer to the name commonly used to describe the location. Rather, we refer to this colony and endeavor as "Operation Hood". We are choose to do so in order to protect the cats. For those who are familiar with this location, we ask that you refrain from disclosing the location/owner and/or making negative remarks. Additionally, we ask that you do not feed these cats or go on the property. We are attempting to get the cats out of public view and we do not want anything to jeopardize the relationship we have formed with the landowner. We will be seeking the assistance from the public, county officials, local businesses, and other local rescues. We ask you to please keep the cats and volunteers in your thoughts and prayers. There are numerous sick cats and kittens involved and it will take an emotional toll on many volunteers. We have a lot of hard work ahead of us but we truly believe that by working together, we can provide a better life to the many cats living in this colony and prevent further growth.
