Trap and Release of Key Biscayne Cats

Key Biscayne's next Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) begins Friday Nov. 7th, 2014. A primary goal of TNR is to sterilize all of the island's homeless "community" cats. Through this process all cats are anesthetized, neutered, vaccinated for rabies, de-wormed, and ear-tipped - the universal sign of a neutered and vaccinated stray cat.
Trapping will begin at 6:30 pm on Friday evening.Residents should NOT feed any homeless "community" cats on Thursday evening Nov. 6th or anytime on Friday. All strays need to be hungry and motivated to enter traps for enticing food on Friday night. Also, island residents with outdoor pet cats should keep them inside on Friday evening. 
Volunteers are needed! Optional activities include trapping on Friday evening, attending to cats waiting for and recovering from sterilization on Saturday, feeding cats on Saturday evening, and returning them to their trapping location on Sunday morning. 
To volunteer please send an email to [email protected] or contact Dr. Susan Sawyer at 305-505-8276. Teens can earn community service credit for their volunteer time.For Community Service information please contact Jill Stephens at 305-361-0102 or  [email protected].  All residents also are asked to contact Dr. Sawyer if they know of any unneutered cats on Key Biscayne.
