    I just got this note from the current Management. This really scares me:

    "No. Sherry and I are not a part of the city Grand Plan, what ever that is. Thanks for all your help and devotion to the cats. Hopefully you will be able continue. The animals are our great concern, I don't know what the Parks and Recreation policy will be. We will be around through the spring.
    Later,"
    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    So the city is calling all the shots, and not consulting the current "residents"! Oh Lisa, I sure hope they don't do something drastic there!

    Thank you! I've already got the current management writing a letter explaining our TNR program and how well it has benefited the park (and cats). You know us, we will fight till the end. Look what we did when the dogs were loose in the park. We've been doing this going on 8 years now and we won't give up easily. We will get many animal people involved here. Let's just hope it doesn't come to this and the new regime will work as well with us as the old one did.
