Ten Lives is dedicated to reducing cat overpopulation in Rhode Island by eliminating the cycle of breeding and suffering for cats in our community. We believe that this requires a multi-pronged approach that reduces the barriers to accessing affordable spay/neuter services for owned and unowned cats. 

We have three vital programs that work towards reducing overpopulation in RI. Each program targets specific populations of cats in need of spay/neuter services.

• Our Community Cat program provides vital services to unowned cats throughout RI.
• Our Foster program provides services to owned and unowned cats in need of veterinary services and adoption. 
• Our Spay it Forward program provides low-cost spay/neuter vouchers to community members in need of spay/neuter services for their cat(s).
