Our History

 

Born from a deep love for animals and a shared desire to enhance animal welfare in our community, Como Critters was founded on Memorial Day weekend in 2022 by a group of compassionate neighbors. Faced with the plight of the community cats roaming our yards and streets, affectionately known as Como Critters, we came together with a mission to make a difference.


Over the past twenty-four months, our organization has flourished, fueled by our unwavering dedication to our cause. In that time, we've had the privilege of extending a helping hand to over 2800 cats and counting, making a profound impact on the lives of both our furry friends and our community.


Our success is a testament to the tireless efforts of our officers, board members, and dedicated volunteers, who hail from diverse backgrounds and bring a wealth of experience and passion to our organization. Some are newcomers to our community, drawn by a shared vision of creating positive change, while others are lifelong residents with deep roots in the area.


Together, our voices form a powerful chorus, representing a significant portion of our local community united in our quest to address the community cat overpopulation crisis with humane, ethical, science backed solutions. With a steadfast commitment to innovation and progress, we strive to implement effective change through our progressive programs focused on community outreach, engagement, and long-term commitment.


As we reflect on our journey thus far, we are filled with gratitude for the unwavering support of our members, volunteers, and community partners. Together, we will continue to work tirelessly to create a brighter future for our beloved community and its cherished critters.

Our Mission

 

At Como Critters, our mission is to provide compassionate, hands-on care for animals in need—while tackling the root causes of suffering through prevention, education, and community collaboration.


We are deeply committed to addressing the crisis of cat overpopulation through progressive Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return (TNVR) programs that humanely reduce the number of free-roaming cats and improve their quality of life. These efforts not only protect cats, but they also benefit neighborhoods, wildlife, and public health.


Our work goes beyond rescue. We operate low-cost clinics that offer spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchipping, and basic wellness care—helping pet owners keep their animals healthy and in their homes. Through education and outreach, we promote responsible pet ownership and empower people to be part of the solution.


At our core, we believe every animal deserves a safe, healthy life—and that a compassionate community is one where people and animals thrive together.
