The Anderson County Animal Shelter, also known as Paws, is starting their TNR program again 👏🏼🙏🏼
If anybody needs help trapping some, shoot us a message. We would be happy to assist!
🚨 TNR DAYS ARE BACK 🚨 READ THE WHOLE POST - For Anderson County Residents Only
Our first Trap-Neuter-Release (TNR) day is March 23rd! 🐾
Drop-off time: 8:00–8:45 AM
➡️ We will NOT accept late drop-offs
Please read ALL guidelines carefully before arriving:
✔️ Cats MUST be in a functional trap
❌ NO carriers, boxes, or crates — we will NOT accept them
✔️ One cat per trap (no exceptions)
✔️ Traps must be EMPTY except for the cat
❌ No cardboard, towels, blankets, bowls, p*e pads, etc.
✂️ All cats will receive an ear tip
❌ Microchipping is NOT an option for TNR cats
🚫 Please do NOT block the front door during drop-off so staff can enter
🚫 If you see cones blocking the entrance, we are FULL and will not be accepting additional traps
📄 We are sharing our surgery form so you can print and fill it out ahead of time for a quick and easy drop-off. You can also stop by beforehand to pick up a form if you don’t have access to a printer.
