Mission

Husker Cats is an independent group of faculty, staff and student volunteers at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln working to ensure a high quality life for cats living in feral colonies on campus.

Goals

  1. Administer a cooperative plan supported by UNL’s administration and the campus community.
  2. Implement a program to stabilize the feral cat population through a neuter/spay and release program. Bring each campus colony to a healthy yet, non-reproductive status within five years of the program’s inception.
  3. Develop a feeding and medical care program to ensure basic ongoing health of the feral colonies.
  4. Find homes for kittens suited to adoption.
  5. Help prevent potential damage to the beauty and safety of our campus grounds and gardens.
  6. Capitalize on the opportunity for an active service learning program to benefit students and show civic responsibility through humane treatment of the feral cat population.
