  • The ferals in my area make better neighbors. They don't spray or fight anymore. They stay to themselves and don't dig in gardens. My friend neutered 16 cats in her backyard alone over the years. The number is down to 11 and no new cats have sighted since.

  • In fact one cat with collar, so someones just dug another neighbors new patch in his yard. go figure

  • Good to know. I'll look into a local chapter. I've counted 11 and know there is more cats, that use my and a neighbors yard as a litter box. Between that and the constant spraying the stench is aweful. We have or animals that stay in our control. In 1 hour 5 cats will dig and defecate.

    What's truly sad is a neighbors un neutered male that sprays and sprays, fights mates and scratches, and digs everything. property destruction from his I repeat his not the communities. Unwanted litters

  • No cat damages, the cat population is down, they rarely bother people and the neighborhood is clean and everyone respects each other. All my local shelters are FOR TNR they have enough friendly strays that are brought in from other neighborhoods. Why take in more unadoptable cats to be killed and let the ones not caught breed twice as many later? Pointless.

  • No doubt that cat leash laws are being pursued. Same as for dogs if not more stringent.

  • Very good. I assume that property/homeowners properties are also well taken care of. and compensated for the cat damages.

  • T&K costs more to trap, house, feed and hold and kill at shelters plus the cats repopulate the ones taken. TNR was done in my area and people are amzed on how well it works.

  • Exactly. I have severe cat problems. Domestic and feral. TNR does not work and is more costly.

  • Yes! Vegan chicks rule (-;

  • good one.you got me ,im done
