Every year, dedicated individuals like you help thousands of cats lead healthier, happier lives through Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) initiatives. 

Yet, misconceptions about this compassionate practice persist.

This helps prevent overpopulation, reduces shelter intake & allows cats to live their lives without adding to the kitten surplus.
