Thank you for all of your hard work .... I am sure it will be a problem forever......

All it takes is one unaltered female to have a litter of 6, and next thing you know you have dozens! Rescuing can be very aggravating, but it also has it rewards!! We've been caring for our colony at the park for over 5 years now, and still maintain a count of around 35 originals (when we first started TNRing there). Usually a ferals life span is around 1 - 2 years.
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
