Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is the only humane and effective approach to community cats, or unowned cats who live outdoors. When TNR is completed cats are free from the burdens of mating and reproducing. They have improved relationships with the people who live near them (think: no more kittens outdoors or yowling, roaming, fighting, or spraying). Additionally, many diseases associated with reproduction, like certain cancers, are prevented. If you have cats living outdoors please contact one of the following groups near you!
