“Removing barriers to responsible pet care aligns with our organization’s mission to help cats and the people who care about them,” said Erin Watson, Executive Director of MRFRS. “By adding full-time professional staff and increasing our availability to four days a week, we’re making it easier and more affordable for families, students, young professionals, and budget-conscious cat parents to spay or neuter their cats. This directly helps reduce overpopulation, prevents unwanted litters, and improves the health and well-being of cats across Massachusetts.” 
Catmobile’s Key Benefits for Cat Owners:
<ul>
 <li>Significantly lower costs compared to traditional veterinary clinics</li>
 <li>Mobile convenience—no need to transport cats long distances</li>
 <li>Expanded availability with a four-day weekly schedule</li>
 <li>Focus on compassionate, high-quality care for feline patients</li>

The expansion reflects growing demand for affordable veterinary services amid rising pet ownership among younger demographics. MRFRS’s Catmobile remains committed to making spay and neuter procedures accessible so that cost is never a barrier to responsible pet ownership. 
About Merrimack River Feline Rescue Society (MRFRS)
MRFRS was founded in 1992 in response to the 300+ cats along the Merrimack River in Newburyport. The effort the organization’s founders launched was one of the first in the nation to use the Trap-Neuter-Return process to improve the lives of free-roaming cats. Once all the cats had been trapped and fixed, they were fed twice a day at the waterfront feeding stations and monitored for illness, injury and any new additions. In 1993, MRFRS opened its first adoption center and then, in 2003, moved to the current location in Salisbury, MA. In 2000, the organization started offering free monthly spay/neuter clinics for feral cats, and in 2008, launched the Catmobile program to provide convenient and low-cost spay/neuter services in local communities. Since its inception, MRFRS has improved the lives of over 151,000 cats and kittens.
