A longtime volunteer urged continued community support for trap‑neuter‑return (TNR) work after saying that the number of feral‑cat colonies she manages has declined and that she needs more volunteer help.

Margaret Cannon (resident) told the council she has lived in Bryan’s 77803 ZIP code for about 26 years and said she has reduced colonies from about 13–14 to roughly five because of ongoing TNR work. Cannon said mobility issues limit her ability to care for the remaining colonies and that local nonprofits — Brazos Feral Cat Allies and BCS Speak — are stretched.

Nut graf: The speaker described long‑running volunteer TNR efforts, an ongoing decline in managed colonies and a need for volunteer support and coordination with animal‑control resources.

Cannon said she attended multiple city animal center board meetings and had sought volunteer help; she described paying a pet sitter in the past and called for continued support from local groups. The transcript records her asking for additional volunteers and continued outreach to sustain the work.

Ending: The comment was recorded during citizens‑on‑agenda public comment; no formal council action or staff response on the record addressed specific requests for additional TNR resources during the meeting.
