More about Feral & Community Cats (TNR)
What this service does and why it matters
Trap-Neuter-Return helps prevent future litters in feral and free-roaming community cat populations. The clinic process differs for cats that cannot be safely handled and free-roaming cats that can be handled. Check your clinic's trapping and scheduling instructions before you come.
- For cats, TNR stops repeated breeding and can reduce fighting, roaming, and mating-related stress.
- For neighborhoods, TNR helps stabilize free-roaming cat populations over time.
- For shelters and rescues, preventing litters reduces pressure on already limited space and resources.
What to know before a visit
- Feral cats are cats that cannot be safely handled. They must arrive in secure, humane traps.
- Contact your clinic for trapping guidelines before you trap.
- Free-roaming cats are cats that can be handled. They need an appointment.
- Ear-notching is included and required so a sterilized community cat can be identified later.
