Trap, Neuter, Vaccinate, Return (TNVR) is the most humane and effective solution for managing stray and feral cat populations. A single female cat can give birth to hundreds of kittens throughout her lifetime. Cats are pregnant for just 8 weeks and can become pregnant again while still nursing their current litter.
Studies consistently show that TNVR effectively reduces the number of stray cats. By spaying or neutering feral cats, we break the breeding cycle, ensuring no new kittens are born into the colony. This approach also helps reduce shelter intake, euthanasia rates, and calls to animal control—all of which contribute to saving lives and cutting taxpayer costs.
What to expect from me
Please read everything before messaging so there's no confusion!
I do not work for the shelter or state. I charge $10-30 per cat, the price depends on how far from me you are and how many cats there are. The goal is to help animals so the price is definitely negotiable, I don't do this to make money! If I could afford to TNVR every cat in the county on my own, I absolutely would!
Trapping cats is VERY time consuming! I will likely be going to your property 5 days a week for 2-3 weeks and there will probably be days I go there without trapping a cat. While I'm trapping, do NOT feed the cats. They won't go in the traps if they aren't hungry! If I go one morning and see the cats are being fed, I will have to move on to the next location.
Each time I trap a cat, I'll take it to Burlington Animal Services for their Mighty Mouser program. This program allows people to bring in stray/feral cats to be neutered & vaccinated. They charge $10 for every pair of cats and the 10th is free. They will keep the cats for a 3 day stray hold. On the last day I'll pick the cats up and bring them back to you spayed/neutered & vaccinated.
If you'd prefer to trap the cats and take them to BAS yourself I can let you borrow a trap. I'll show you how to use it and you can text or call me any time you have questions!
