Welcome!

The BCCC is a TRUE no-kill cat rescue and adoption organization who assists feral (wild) and abandoned cats and their kittens.

We promote low-cost spay/neuter of companion animals and educate the public on local animal issues, including offering advice/assistance to residents dealing with homeless cat situations or needing to re-home a cat. Click here to learn more.

The BCCC is a 501(c)(3) organization, meaning your donation is tax-deductible !

As BCCC grows, we have new needs.

Currently, our need is for a small commercial facility where we can house feral cats each month, prior to and after their spay or neuter surgeries. The facility does not have to be big (can be the size of a single garage bay), but, must include proper ventilation, temperature control, easy access and security. If you happen to know of a location for BCCC in Billerica, we would be interested to learn about this.

Contact us by e-mail at: info@billericacatcarecoalition.org

You can also leave a message at the Billerica Town Manager’s office.

Spay Day 2010

Billerica Cat Care Coalition is participating in Spay Day 2010. Spay Day is an annual international campaign promoting the spay and neuter of pets. Officially, Tuesday February 23rd is Spay Day and includes events and activities taking place around the world throughout the month of February.

Please join BCCC Saturday February 6, 2010 from 11 AM to 2 PM at Petco, Burlington, MA or Saturday February 13, 2010 from 11 AM to 2 PM at Agway, Chelmsford, MA.

An alternative for pet caregivers who haven’t had an opportunity to spay or neuter their pet cat or can’t afford veterinary costs is the ‘Catmobile’. This subsidized mobile spay/neuter clinic provides owners of pet cats a low cost spay/neuter option. The ‘Catmobile’ will be in Billerica, Thursday February 25, 2010, at the Billerica Police Department, Good Street parking lot.

Donate to the "Good Samaritan" fund

Update on foreclosed home cat rescue: December 2009 - 13 cats and 7 kittens, of which are all purebreed Siamese and Himalayan cats, have been rescued and are now in foster care from this location. A few cats have eluded us, but, BCCC will continue trapping efforts, until all are safely in foster care. None of the cats were spayed or neutered, so we are making sure they all receive full medical care.

Eddie is ready for adoption!

*UPDATE*I'm now ready for adoption and would be very lucky if someone would adopt me as I'm easy to please and to get along with.  I do get along with other cats.  I like getting stroked very much but if you come down to my level rather than standing over me, I like it much better.  I'm a pretty good looking guy if I do say so.  I'm upto date on my shots and am FIV & FELV neg.  I'm also neutered.
