WHAT IS TNVR?

The Trap-Neuter-Vaccinate-Return (TNVR) program is a humane strategy aimed at managing an unowned cat population. This process involves trapping stray cats, spaying or neutering them to prevent further reproduction, vaccinating them against common diseases, and then returning them to their original habitats.

 

TNVR is crucial because it helps reduce the number of homeless cats, improves their health, and decreases the overall strain on local animal shelters. By controlling cat populations in a humane way, communities can create a healthier environment for both the cats and the residents.
