What is TNR (Trap, Neuter/Spay, Return)

TNR is about caring for community cats through trapping, spaying/neutering, vaccinating, and returning the cats to their outdoor home. TNR is a great way to help keep feral cats safe, healthy, and fixed. Feral cats are usually less likely to socialize with humans, they are harder to foster and adopt, and less likely to be taken in by a shelter. The only other humane option is to support the outdoor cat colony.
