Trap

The first step in the TNR program is to trap the feral cats in a humane way and to house them in a safe environment until they can be examined by a vet. We do this by setting up special trap cages, which are continuously monitored by our volunteers.

Neuter

Fertile female cats can have up to 20 kittens per a year – that’s over 300 offspring in just three years! This rapid population growth has a very negative effect on the well being of feral cats, which is why it is important to spay and neuter them.

Return

Once the feral cats have been spayed or neutered and have recovered from their surgeries, illnesses and injuries, they are returned to their home territory where kind, cat-loving people will make sure they have access to food at all times.

Not all cats are returned

What started as just a TNR program for feral cats has developed into a comprehensive program for rescuing strays and homeless cats from all kinds of situations.

We not only rescue stray cats but also accept cats that are surrendered to us from homes that have no other options. Older feral cats have also shown that they are quite happy living indoors and quickly get used to the safety and warmth of a loving home.

Foster homes accept our cats into their homes until they can go to their forever homes. Some cats need time to learn to trust humans again, while others are just waiting to be adopted.
