Our impact in numbers
At TNRVA, every number tells a story of compassion and progress. Since our inception, we have been dedicated to improving the lives of community cats in the Richmond area. Our statistics reflect not just our efforts, but the tangible difference we make through Trap-Neuter-Return programs.
"As of August 2026, 93 cats have been TNR'd by TNRVA in the Hanover, Henrico, and Richmond areas. This number represents lives changed for the better."

About our organization
Why our numbers matter
We share our data because transparency breeds trust—and because these numbers tell a powerful story:
Proof of progress: Trap-Neuter-Return works. Behind every trap, surgery, and vaccination is a tangible decrease in unwanted litters, fighting, and shelter overpopulation.
Accountability: As a volunteer-led nonprofit, we want our donors, supporters, and neighbors to see exactly how resources are deployed directly into the field.
Empowerment: Highlighting our collective impact shows that community cat management isn't an impossible challenge; it takes time, patience, and dedication. It’s an actionable, measurable program with real results.
Our message is simple: TNR isn't just about managing numbers; it’s about improving lives starting with one cat, one colony, and one neighborhood at a time.
Our future goals
Our past successes prove that humane management works. The goal for the future isn't just to react to colony overpopulation, but to proactively stabilize and reduce it, thereby improving the quality of life for community cats while providing an efficient, compassionate resource for the neighborhoods they live in.
We are committed to expanding our reach, increasing our trapping efforts, and continuing to advocate for humane solutions. With your support, we can make an even greater impact on the well-being of community cats in Hanover, Henrico, and Richmond.
