Feral Cat Rescuer
A "feral" cats life span on the average is 1 - 2 years. This is due to not being fed on a regular basis, diseases from poor nutrition, and lack of vet care. At least with an "outdoor pet cat" they are fed and cared for, which helps their life span to be longer.
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
