Trap/Neuter/Return

The TNR Solution to Feral Cat Populations

TNR is a proven procedure in which entire colonies of feral cats are:

  • Humanely trapped
  • Evaluated
  • Vaccinated
  • Neutered by veterinarians
  • Returned to their outdoor environment
  • Provided with food

The breeding stops. Annoying behavior of breeding cats stops and eventually the populations are reduced.

FELINE $5

To encourage those with feral colonies to get them neutered and spayed! 

We pay $5 for every cat humanely trapped, neutered, successfully returned to their colony. 

  • Ears are tipped after surgery to show the cat has been neutered.
  • If you need help, we are willing to teach you how to trap the cats and how to care for your colonies as well.
  • The customer pays nothing for any of this!
