Community Cats & TNR: A Humane Solution
 
Community cats—unowned, free-roaming felines—play a unique role in our neighborhoods. They can be:
 
🐱 Feral – Wild-born, avoiding human contact.
🐱 Semi-Feral – Cautious but may accept food and limited interaction.
🐱 Stray – Former pets, often friendly and seeking a home.
 
To manage their population humanely, we use Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR). This proven method:
✔️ Prevents overpopulation through spay/neuter.
✔️ Reduces nuisance behaviors like spraying and fighting.
✔️ Improves health & safety with rabies vaccinations.
✔️ Lowers shelter intake, allowing more adoptable cats to find homes.
 
Our team works with the community to provide affordable TNR services. If you need help with a community cat colony, contact us—feral cat intakes are by appointment only.
 
Let’s work together for a healthier, safer community!
