a non-profit 501(c)3 Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) organization. TNR is a full management plan in which stray and feral (wild) cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteer caregivers (caregivers provide on-going care, shelter, food, supervision, and medical treatment.) As they work tirelessly to Trap-Neuter-Return feral cat colonies in Calhoun County, they inevitably come across an assortment of young litters of kittens or friendly adult cats who, unlike their feral counterparts, would happily thrive as pet cats in a human home. Kittens and tame cats (who have joined a colony due to abandonment) are spayed/neutered, then placed into foster home until they are adopted into good homes. This is where our group comes into play.
