If you feed them...you need to fix them!

Why you need to TNR

Trap, Neuter, Release is one of the most important things you can do to improve the quality of life for feral cats. Scientific studies show that TNR reduces shelter intake, addresses community population concerns, and helps save lives by preventing free breeding among feral cats.
​
  • Kittens can start breeding as young as 4 months old
  • Stop unwanted litters and over population in an existing cat crisis in New Jersey
  • Male cats will fight less when neutered and live more peacefully at colonies together
  • Female cats will not be at risk for pyometra or suffer during birth when fixed
  • Not all kittens  survive, TNR  humanely stops suffering for both the adult cats and unborn kittens!
