Hi Everyone! I am brand new to this site. I am seeking some advice from others who are caring for ferals. I live in a small town with a lot of busy roads. I started feeding a few strays....the rest is history. I now have a colony that I take care of. I am in the process of trying to get as many spayed/neutered as possible. I was able to TNR 19 last spring and so far this spring have gotten 15 done with an appointment next week for 5 more (if I can catch the stragglers). Unfortunately my passion and love for these little guys is not shared by the rest of the community I just had a visit from the police this week asking about the cats. I explained what we were doing as a solution to the growing cat population, and must say the officer was impressed that we have used our own money and resources to help these little guys. However, I am afraid the community....namely the renter across the street (who called the police) could be a problem. His issue was the cats are going to the bathroom in his daughter's sandbox. Any suggestions on how to handle this? It is a small town and we do live on top of each other, so the cats wander into other yards. I hate to think that I would have to stop helping them. The incidences of finding dead cats on the road has decreased dramatically since we've started this project, but I'm not sure how long I can continue it. Any thoughts would be appreciated!
