TNR (Trap Neuter and Return)

Trap, Neuter, Return (TNR) is Adopt-A-Pet’s newest program. The program is funded solely by donations. There are tens of millions of feral or stray cats in the US and millions of these cats are killed in shelters each year because they are unadoptable. Killing feral cats is not the solution – its just taking a life. These cats deserve to live as much as any other.

Trap, Neuter, Return (TNR) is widely recognized as the most humane and effective strategy for reducing the feral cat population. People from the community who are caring for a colony of feral or stray cats may fill out an application and have those homeless animals spayed or neutered.

These cats must not belong to anyone and must have adequate shelter and food outside. The person filling out the application must agree to continue feeding and providing shelter after the animals have been altered. This program will greatly reduce the amount of homeless cats euthanized each year.
