The Maryland Feline Society, Inc., was founded in 1970 as a non-profit, tax- exempt organization for cat lovers in Maryland. It has charitable, humane, and educational purposes – specifically to improve and protect the health and welfare of all cats and to educate people about cats. The organization achieves these goals through bi-monthly meetings and a variety of projects.

Our 2002 project was a feral cat spayathon. Over 300 feral cats were altered and vaccinated and many were returned to their colonies. Other projects in the past have included household pet cat shows, a seminar on house-soiling (“Ain’t Misbehavin’”), nursing home visits with cats, and multiple topic seminars. Members have written cat care pamphlets which are distributed at information tables at cat shows and shopping centers.

Our bi-monthly meetings usually consist of a talk on some aspect of cat health, behavior, or ownership. Cats often are present. Some past talks have been on how to read X-rays, cat colors and patterns, feline leukemia virus, how to read a cat food label, various cat breeds such as the Norwegian Forest Cat, and introducing a new cat to the household.
