Trap-neuter-return(TNR)

Trap-neuter-return (TNR) is a program through which free-roaming community cats (not belonging to particular humans) are humanely trapped; sterilized and medically treated; and returned to the outdoor locations where they were found.  If they cannot be returned then a suitable barn home is found so they can live out their lives in safety with food, water, and shelter.

Application to borrow a trap or get help with trapping.   (Minimal trapping occurs during the cold winter months.)

Application for financial assistance to fix a free roaming cat

The traps we recommend using.  (They can be purchased at All About Animals in Flint for $60.)
