We helped reduce several colonies in our city by mostly having them fixed and then released. Just feeding strays without fixing them only increases the colonies. But I love seeing the hunger angels being fed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He makes some videos showing the cats in carriers in his car with their ears slightly notched signifying they just were neutered. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem being unless it is a blanket program ie several vets working full time for at least two weeks in an area then it wont work ....Neutering the males is often cheaper and more effective but most concentrate on the females . One female left un neutered can produce up to 12 kittens in a year but one male left un neutered can impregnate hundred females in a year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
