Our very aggressive TNR program has definitely begun to make a dent in the feral cat over-population in Fernley, Silver Springs, Stagecoach, Yerington and surrounding areas.

In the field of rescue there is always triumph and tragedy. We work so hard to save every life rescued but occasionally nature has other plans and we lose the battle.
ARGONN uses the Asilomar Live Release Rate to calculate our % of lives saved (save rate).
2013 Intake 41 Live outcome 99.0%
2014 Intake 86 Live outcome 87.2%
2015 Intake 239 Live outcome 95.4%
2016 Intake 203 Live outcome 94.1%
2017 Intake 119 Live outcome 97.4%
2018 Intake 188 Live outcome 91.4%
Total 2013 - 2018 = 375
As a rescue without a shelter our cats/kittens need to be seen to be adopted. Website exposure isn't always enough. Partnering with larger organizations such as the SPCA of Northern Nevada, Nevada Humane Society and Pet Network has been huge in helping us transfer many foster kittens and cats to shelters for adoption.

Our biggest breakthrough for successful adoptions came in 2016 when we became a PetSmart Partner. Finally a "store front" exposure for our adoptable kittens and cats became a reality. We have never looked back, and have been able to save so many more lives as a result.
