Summary
To Tim Dack, the R part of TNR doesn't make much sense. Remember he's the guy from Winnipeg's Animal Services. He hears complaint after complaint about nuisance cats, owned or feral. Releasing a cat back into the wild won't keep it from bothering people.
If you have a cat, get it spayed or neutered. If you can't afford it the Humane Society has subsidy programs to help. Call them. Ask. The next time your children want to go look at the kitties in the pet store, take them to a shelter instead. Adopt there, please (Sorry, pet stores, but this is an emergency. If they don't get adopted, ultimately they get killed.) And remember, pets are lots of work. If you adopt one, you are making a commitment to try to keep it healthy for the rest of its life. They're worth the work. They give back more love than you can ever give them, but they are not disposable. You can't trade them in on a cuter model when your kids get bored. That may sound harsh, but it happens.See the full content of this document
