TNR (Trap, Neuter, Return)

Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) stands out as the sole compassionate and efficient approach for managing community cats or unowned cats residing outdoors.

Scientific research has demonstrated that TNR effectively manages the community cat population by breaking the cycle of reproduction, resulting in the prevention of new kittens being born within a community cat colony. As a prudent public policy, TNR addresses community concerns, diminishes the intake and euthanization rates at animal shelters, and reduces the number of calls made to animal services. These measures collectively safeguard the lives of cats and save taxpayer funds.

When cats are relieved from the challenges of mating and reproduction, their relationships with nearby residents tend to improve, eliminating issues such as outdoor kittens, disruptive yowling, roaming, fighting, or spraying. Furthermore, TNR helps prevent various diseases linked to reproduction, including certain types of cancers.
