ADL supports and practices TNR. Simply put, community cats are humanely trapped and taken to the local clinic or veterinarian to be spayed or neutered and vaccinated. After their recovery, the cats are returned to their 'colony' or outdoor home. Cats and kittens that are friendly and socialized to people may have the opportunity to be adopted into forever homes. The importance of TNR is that it stops the breeding cycle of cats and therefore improves their lives and ultimately prevents births and the over population in our shelters.
