Trap-Neuter-Release
Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a program through which free-roaming feral cats (community cats) are
humanely trapped, transported to a veterinarian where they are sterilized, rabies vaccinated, left ear-tipped
and returned to the outdoor locations where they were found. The ear-tipping of a cat is the universal sign
of an altered community cat. This is the most humane, effective, and financially sustainable strategy for
controlling free-roaming cat populations and the only proven humane and effective method to manage
community cat colonies.
Once TNR is in place, the cats will no longer reproduce; the population will stabilize and eventually decline.
TNR programs stop reproduction and therefore mating behaviors such as fighting, roaming, spraying,
yowling or fighting stops. This helps the cats become better neighbors to everyone. The cats are rabies
vaccinated and are less susceptible to infectious diseases. This will help improve the overall health of the
cats. This is a win, win for us all. For more information on TNR please contact the Pet Resource Center.
