Village Trappers, an an all-volunteer, nonprofit, 501(c)(3) organization, was started in May 2022 by two women who saw a great need to help the community cats and their caretakers all over South Jersey. Their local shelter was frequently at capacity with cats and kittens, since spay and neuter rates in the community and owned cats are low. Cumberland County is the lowest income county in NJ, and with high poverty rates veterinary care is often cost-prohibitive, and many residents rely on assistance from low-cost spay and neuter programs.
