I live in a small town surrounded by 2 busy roads. When I first moved here, I noticed stray cats, and it was not unusual to quite frequently find a dead cat on or near the road. I began feeding them in an effort to keep them away from the roads. I soon realized how quickly a few turned into many. I began a TNR program 2 years ago and have been successful in fixing approximately 50 cats. Not all of these cats are ones I care for. My immediate colony is about 20 to which I provide food and fresh water source, as well as shelter on my mud porch. I have been increasingly uneasy about the folks in my town. I know my passion for these poor cats is not felt across the board, and I am getting worried that I could at some point face trouble for caring for these little guys. I've had the police at my home once responding to a complaint. I informed him I was in a TNR program and was attempting to control the problem in our town. Nothing came of this, but I feel like I am being watched. I am getting more and more nervous that someone is going to create a situation whereby I could be held legally responsible for something I have no control over i.e a cat bite, or traffic accident etc. The colony stays pretty much on my deck, and comes into my mudporch where I have provided beds and shelter from the elements, so they are deemed "my cats" by the neighbors. Does anyone else have a similar situation? Am I just being paranoid, or should I heed this uneasiness? Are there cases where law suits have been filed against colony caretakers? Any advice would be appreciated.
