Why is TNR Important?

They all MATTER

WHY IS TNR IMPORTANT?

  • We can ALL improve the lives of outdoor cats with Trap-Neuter-Return, a humane and effective approach for feral cats. Our shelter was created to save feral cats from the shelters, neglect situations we have also had FANTASTIC success with rescue and rehabilitation of feral kittens and stray cats so that they can live as indoor pets, we also carry out TNR projects and offer LOW cost spay and neuter programs as well to help curve the overpopulation . We feel that a feral cat’s life does have meaning – since it did not choose this existence, we are dedicated to improving its life in the best way that we can. And for us, an INDOOR home life would be the end game. However, some just do NOT want the indoor life and we are ok making sure they are safe, healthy and happy either way. 
  • On average, female cats have three litters of 4-6 kittens per year. Naturally these kittens are not spayed or neutered and will eventually make their contribution to the homeless cat population. Female cats lead very difficult lives, caring for their kittens as well as trying to survive themselves. The constant fighting between males cats causes many horrible injuries while the indiscriminate mating leads to the spread of diseases such as FIV, FELV, Distemper and Pyometra which is a painful slow death if not found in female cats.
  • TNR ends the vicious cycle of reproduction, preventing further litters of kittens from being born outside only to suffer. We reduce the size of existing cat colonies by removing both kittens and adults cats that we feel can be placed into adoptive homes. The others are spayed or neutered, ear tipped and returned to their caretaker. Food can also be provided when needed. You don't have to be a rescue to do this! If you feed them FIX THEM!
