A community/feral cat is a cat who has either never had any contact with humans or their contact with humans has diminished over time. They are fearful of people and survive on their own outdoors. A feral cat is not likely to ever become a lap cat or enjoy living indoors.
​
BUT THEY STILL NEED CARE!
​
TNR: Trap/Neuter/Return
Trap-Neuter-Return is successfully practiced in hundreds of communities and in every landscape and setting. It is exactly what it sounds like: Cats are humanely trapped and taken to a veterinarian to be neutered and vaccinated. After recovery, the cats are returned to their home—their colony—outdoors.
​
This is the best possible outcome for outdoor cats. No more repopulation and they receive lifesaving care in the process.
