Shelter highlights free TNVR spay-and-neuter program in Martin County
Summary
On-air presenters emphasized the shelter's trap‑neuter‑vaccinate‑return (TNVR) program available in Martin County and neighboring counties, urging pet owners to spay and neuter to prevent large stray litters.
Sarah Fisher and shelter staff used a segment on Pets on Parade to urge the public to spay and neuter pets and described the shelter's TNVR program that targets free-roaming cats. "So that's why it's so important to always spay and neuter, your pets or we we have a free TNVR program where we can trap cats, in Martin County, and we can spay them and neuter them. It's not even just in Martin County. It's in, all other counties as well," Fisher said.
The segment explained the local consequences of unspayed colonies: one speaker said Kelly the calico arrived as part of a group that included "2 other adults, and 13 kittens," illustrating how quickly unaltered populations can grow. Presenters framed TNVR as a preventative measure and encouraged pet owners to use the program rather than allowing unmanaged colonies to persist.
No legal authorities, ordinances or municipal policies were cited on-air; the segment offered program-level information and an appeal to public responsibility. Viewers were asked to contact the shelter for trapping, spaying and neutering services in Martin County and surrounding areas.
