    Feral Cat Feeder

    A few years ago I was fortunate enough to have the Company I work for buy into my feral cat program. As long as I can remember there have been cats on the property and they would call a pest control to trap and remove them. After educating them on the benefits of TNR I am now the official...

    We've been caring for some colonies of ferals for over 6 years now. They've all been TNR'd, we feed/water daily and now some very IRRESPONSIBLE dog owners are letting their dogs get loose in the park. They're killing the animals and we don't know where to go from here. Here's a note from one...
