In addition to this \u201cbonus\u201d surgery day, Napa Humane altered <strong>100 community cats in August<\/strong> as part of our Feral Drop Off program for Napa County residents.<\/p>\n<p>Our next Caturday focused on community cats in neighboring Lake County and Solano County. There are <u>no<\/u> low-cost spay\/neuter options for cats in these counties, and we know we need to step up to help humanely reduce the community cat population in these struggling areas. On September 17th, <strong>27 cats and kittens from Lake and Solano arrived for services<\/strong>, making it a long, but satisfying day for our team. In addition to spaying\/neutering, we shaved matted fur, applied flea medicine, vaccinated, microchipped and added ear tips. <strong>An eartip, of course, identifies a cat as having been spayed\/neutered and vaccinated.<\/strong>\u00a0This lets everyone know at a glance that a cat has gone through a TNR program and should be left to live its best life.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-11060\" src=\"https:\/\/napahumane.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/cat_carriers1-240x300.jpg\" alt=\"TNR cat carriers\" width=\"240\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/napahumane.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/cat_carriers1-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/napahumane.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/cat_carriers1-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/napahumane.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/cat_carriers1-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/napahumane.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/cat_carriers1.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 240px) 85vw, 240px\" \/>We couldn\u2019t have successful TNR days like these without the good Samaritans who do what it takes to trap and transport the cats to and from the clinic. Our trappers range from TNR veterans with years of experience, to brand new trappers who saw a problem in their neighborhood and wanted to help. With a little bit of guidance and the loan of Napa Humane traps, anyone can be part of the solution.
