The Mayor's Alliance, a nonprofit liaison between city agencies,
major animal protection organizations and smaller neighborhood
groups, has a program called the NYC Feral Cat Initiative providing information, education and some services, like transport and traps.
A
major item on our agenda this year will be to require that abusers handle the «costs of care» for the
animals rescued from dogfighting, cockfighting, and other cases of cruelty — rather than placing the financial burden on
animal protection groups.
