Committee hears about feral cat population and low-cost spay/neuter clinics
Summary
Staff and committee members discussed feral cats, past volunteer spay/neuter efforts, and listed recent clinic dates and a $75 assistance program. The committee heard that feral cats are often not adopted and require different handling than socialized animals.
Members discussed the size of the feral cat population and the role of spay/neuter clinics in population control. A staff member noted that volunteer spay/neuter efforts a decade ago helped reduce numbers and that the Humane Society offers low-cost clinic dates and assistance for residents.
"They do a lot of that stuff," the staff member said when listing recent clinic dates and financial assistance: "they do have it looks like they had 3 spay neuter clinics this year or in September 14, October 26, November 23, and they click they also give money for up to $75 to help cost of spaying or noting so." Committee members and staff agreed spay/neuter and trap/return approaches are typical for feral populations and that feral cats are less likely to be adopted than socialized animals.
