Great Article! OK Humane Reaches 2007 TNR Goal
Ear Tip cat
We have reached our goal of 1,000 cats trapped, neutered and returned in our TNR program!
 
This TNR is a comprehensive plan where entire feral colonies are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and neutered. Kittens and cats that are tame enough will be placed up for adoption; otherwise adult cats are returned to their familiar habitat to live out their lives under the observant care of Colony Manager Volunteers.

We are working on setting even loftier goals for 2008.  With the help of our dedicated colony managers and trapping volunteers, we are really making a difference for feral cats in Oklahoma City, and helping the OKC Animal Shelter reduce its euthanasia rates.
