Sterling work is being carried out by volunteer workers who have made it their lives' mission to look after the interest of feral (wild) cats by keeping their population down through sterilisation and a feeding programme. The two George women are so passionate about their cause that they scour the streets and areas surrounding George to find neglected and unsterilised cats in order to neuter them and see to their general welfare. CAT Garden Route is a non-profit organisation which was registered in 2016 by Rita Brock to help cats in need in the Garden Route. Rita, who is supported by the Garden Route SPCA, traps feral cats in many areas including George's industrial area. She has them sterilised by the SPCA, and returns these cats to their colonies to live out their natural lives free from reproducing litters of unwanted kittens.
