We are often asked about what kind of traps we recommend for purchase. We are huge fans of Tomahawk live traps. They are fantastic traps that are safe, reliable, easy to use and above all, they are humane so they do not harm cats.
Tomahawk was kind enough to create a custom model just for FixNation. We encourage anyone interested in purchasing their own trap to check out this model. It will last you for years to come, and for trappers of all experience levels, it’s truly a great choice.
Prices start …

FixNation wants you to know about an important development in Los Angeles concerning TNR. Last month a local judge issued a ruling in response to a lawsuit filed against the City of LA by wild bird groups, ordering that the City of Los Angeles is suspended in supporting and promoting Trap-Neuter-Return as a means to help homeless cats.

TNR is a community-based, humane approach to controlling homeless cat overpopulation. It involves concerned citizens humanely trapping feral cats, getting them spayed and neutered (at clinics like FixNation), and then returning them to …

FixNation loans out humane traps, carriers and equipment free of charge to the public, provided you are using our services.
The traps we loan out are humane traps that won’t harm the cats. While the traps may look intimidating, they are actually very safe. Using a humane trap is the safest solution to catch a feral cat – safer for both the cat and for you. It’s also the best way to temporarily house and transport them. Furthermore, it’s safer and easier for our vet techs to anesthetize the cat through …

A feral cat is an outdoor, free-roaming cat who has never been socialized to humans and is living in a “wild” state. This could be a formerly domestic cat who has been abandoned and has reverted back to a “wild” state, or a cat who has been born on the streets and has never had any contact or interaction with humans. (Even though feral cats are wild, they should not be confused with “wildcats” like lynx or bobcats, who are not domestic animals.)
Feral cats are not handleable. They look like …

The day-to-day needs of our program are many, as constant attention must be given to clinic management, fundraising, responding to caregiver applications, scheduling spay-neuter appointments, community outreach, and much, much more. With so much to do, it’s easy to get caught up in one’s own world and forget that there is more to our mission than simply our own agenda. In fact, we’re number 2 in the TNR cycle, whereas you, our clients, represent both the T and the R!
This being the case, we take this opportunity to recognize the …

Feral cats are outdoor, free-roaming cats who are not socialized to humans. They are generally wild and unhandleable. Whether you have just one or two cats or kittens who showed up in your yard, or if you are dealing with a feral cat colony of many, you will need to complete our feral cat application form. For more clarification on the differences between feral, stray and tame cats, see the FAQ section of our website.
Feral cats will need to come to our clinic in humane cat traps, which we can …
