PROGRESS REPORT 
In addition to assisting with adoption of healthy, loving cats, and making detailed arrangements to assist with emergency pet sheltering in Blanco County, our Blanco County Cat Coalition has been busy with our on-going process of trapping, neutering and returning cats in a program known as TNR. All of our services are subject to availability of volunteers and donated funding. TNR is a proven procedure in which entire colonies of stray and feral cats are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and spayed/neutered by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into homes. Adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to live out their lives under the watchful care of sympathetic neighborhood volunteers. The table below shows our TNR activity by year, with the figure indicating the number of cats in Blanco County that were Trapped, Neutered and Returned under this program.
TNR works. The breeding stops. Cat populations are gradually reduced. Nuisance behaviors associated with breeding, such as the yowling of females or the spraying of Toms, are virtually eliminated. Disease and malnutrition are greatly reduced. Ongoing care creates a safety net for the cats and the community. We need your help to continue this vital work. Please send whatever you can to help the Blanco County Cat Coalition improve and protect the lives of stray and feral cats through Trap-Neuter-Return. Please click on Donations for more information. Thank you for caring and helping. |
