Welcome

Friends of Roman Cats desires to help homeless cats and their caretakers with an emphasis in Italy and the United States. We pursue this goal through innovative programs, international cooperation and educational initiatives. We support spay-neuter programs and believe that the practice of Trap-Neuter-Return is the best and most humane way to help reduce homeless cat populations.

Thank you for visiting our site. We hope you will support us in our efforts to make the world a better place for the wonderful creatures that live among us.

California License Plate Donates Money to Spay/Neuter

The site for full info and ordering is: http://www.caspayplate.com/ (please cut and paste this into your browser, we are having site difficulties making this a clickable link)

The California Pet Lover’s License plate is sponsored by the California Veterinary Medical Board. Proceeds from the plate provide funding for free or low-cost spay & neuter surgeries across California, and also help to raise awareness about the importance of spaying and neutering. Unfortunately they may not continue the plates if there isn’t a significant interest in them so go to their website and order one today. A considerable amount of the proceeds actually go to the fund too.You can see a breakdown of the approximate amounts on the FAQ page of their site.

Donations to our organization go directly to helping animals!

Friends of Roman Cats has two different programs to help cats in both the U.S. and Italy. While our Humane Trap Program benefits many cats in Italy, our St Francis Fund is strictly for Bay Area homeless cats in need of medical attention.

If you would like to donate towards one or more of these programs, contact Susan Wheeler at rappwheel@aol.com or Mary Kennedy at marezie@comcast.net.
