TNRM Success

TNRM is the solution to stabilizing and reducing the community cat population safely and humanely. It has proven results when communities apply the practice actively and liberally.

TNRM is effective in not only decreasing the cat population, but also in decreasing neighborhood nuisance problems such as roaming, fighting, spraying, and howling. Most importantly, it can eliminate the unnecessary euthanasia of thousands of cats annually.

Community Cat FAQs

A community cat is a term used for domestic cats who live outdoors and have no apparent owner. They are sometimes called feral cats, which can be a misnomer. Their behavior is not always feral and can range from fearful and wary of people to friendly and social.
