Please remember we are an all volunteer organization that has built relationships with many low cost clinics in order to “cut through the red tape” and get community cats fixed & vaccinated. If we schedule you for your appointments and you aren’t able to keep them they often go unused. We’ve learned a lot in the past 10 years and love to share our knowledge with you! Please help us continue to serve the community and help the community cats of Bastrop County!
Nobody cares for a backseat driver, and that goes double for TNR volunteers. We often post to educate, and such is the intention of this one. This isn't something that happens very often, thankfully. The majority of people asking for TNR assistance are cooperative, appreciative, and interested in learning about our procedures. It's a rare individual who asks for help and then undermines our efforts.
BUT we want to be very clear.... if you're someone who has decided you know all there is to know about TNR and that we should come to your property and do everything your way, please understand that we have tried and true procedures. If this is the situation, please go ahead and handle the problem yourself, because un-neutered animals are a problem, a very BIG problem and we have limited time, with none to waste.
Respectfully, the public needs to understand that we are volunteers, our time is as valuable as yours, and we are not employees that can come and go at your convenience. We have procedures that are based on our experience, continuing research, and shared knowledge. Bottom line: we're happy to help folks who are willing to participate in the TNR process without undermining or interfering with our efforts.
Finally, we want to send a big THANK YOU to all the folks we've worked with who have treated us with respect. It's always a victory to collaborate with property owners to successfully get their kitty situations under control.
