National Feral Cat Day is Wednesday, Oct. 15
What is TNR?
TRAP-NEUTER-RETURN (TNR) is a
full management plan in which stray and
feral cats already live outdoors in cities,
towns, and rural areas are humanely
trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated and
sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and
tame cats are adopted into good homes.
Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted
are returned to their familiar habitats un-
der the lifelong care of volunteers,
"Whenever a community embdrks
on a major spay/neuter program,
the number of unwanted animals
"Rescued" decreases annually."
