![]() ![]() TNR helps stabilize the population: Once TNR is in place, cats will no longer reproduce.Whether you love or hate the cats in your neighborhood, the Community Cats Program is the answer! Instead, free-roaming cats and the neighborhoods they live in can benefit from Trap Neuter Return (TNR), where cats can be humanely trapped, brought in to be spayed/neutered and vaccinated, receive an ear-tip so we know they have already been sterilized, and be returned to their communities. Plus, although some Community Cats may tolerate human contact, most would not be happy in a traditional home setting. If a cat is healthy, it has found food and shelter and will be able to continue to thrive on its own. These cats do not have to be brought into the shelter to be rehomed, they already have a home! They are perfectly happy living in their colonies and neighborhoods. They repay the favor of this beneficial set-up by keeping additional cats from moving into the neighborhood as well as controlling rodent populations for their human neighbors. Outdoor cats that are free-roaming or feral are considered “Community Cats.” These cats sometimes live in groups called colonies and choose their territories because they have a food source and shelter there. ![]()
