What is TNR?

TNR is the humane and effective way to reduce the outdoor cat population.

  • Trap: Humanely capture community cats.
  • Neuter: Spay/neuter to prevent litters.
  • Return: Cats are returned to their outdoor home, healthy and unable to reproduce.

Why is TNR Important?

🐱 Prevents overpopulation – One unspayed female cat can have up to 2–3 litters per year, leading to dozens of kittens annually.
🐱 Reduces euthanasia – Fewer kittens born means fewer ending up in shelters.
🐱 Improves cat health – Spayed/neutered cats are less likely to suffer from certain cancers and infections.
🐱 Reduces nuisance behaviors – No more yowling, spraying, fighting, or roaming in search of mates.
🐱 Stabilizes colonies – Once fixed, outdoor cat colonies shrink naturally over time.
