TNR SWVA

We are a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to advocating for community cats in Southwest Virginia.

Our mission is to advocate and participate in trap, neuter & return for community cats; to help and provide outreach to members of the community to humanely control cat overpopulation; to create a gateway for the public through communication and exemplification to gain support of TNR; & to serve as a resource for guidance, health and welfare of community cats so that we are decreasing the amou

nt of suffering, shelter intakes and unnecessary euthanasias, all while keeping the most important aspect in mind, to improve and save the lives of community cats.

It's been a while since we've posted an update. Over the past several weeks, we have covered veterinary care for 154 cats. This includes spay & neuter surgeries, vaccines, a tail amputation, dental cleaning and extractions, antibiotics and various other treatments.

Trapping, transporting, overnighting kitties before and after their surgeries, feeding colonies on the daily and caring for the sickly - it takes a village! A lot of time and resources go into Trap-Neuter-Return, and we couldn't do it without our dedicated volunteers and ongoing support from our wonderful community. Thank you for always supporting our mission!

As we wish you moms out there a Happy Mother's Day, we can't help but think of the mama cats in our community. The exhaustion - nursing, cleaning, hunting for food, seeking shelter, protecting their young against predators and more!

This is exactly why TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) is so important. With your help, we can prevent unexpected litters and give more cats the chance to live healthy, peaceful lives in their outdoor homes.

Help us celebrate this Mother's Day by supporting us in our mission to spay & neuter Southwest Virginia's cats. Together, we CAN make a difference! 🐈‍⬛

The "R" in TNR is such an important part of our mission! Returning cats to their natural environment is crucial in Trap-Neuter-Return, helping to stabilize the cat population by preventing future litters and reducing the overall number of cats in our community.

We stress the importance of returning community cats to their colonies for their overall wellbeing. Removing them creates a vacuum effect, attracting new cats from surrounding areas & leading to an increase in population.

TNR is such a necessary and compassionate way of preventing kittens from being born into homelessness, giving them the chance to live healthier, happier lives with the support of their caretakers. We are so grateful to be able to provide this service to our community cats and the people who care for them! 😻

Springtime = kitten season & we've hit the ground running! If you find kittens, please don't rush to bring them inside. While your compassion & impulse to help is appreciated, we must ALWAYS do what is best for the cat.

Mama cats often leave their kittens temporarily while hunting for food. If the kittens are clean, warm and quiet, it is important to leave them be. Leaving kittens with their mother increases their chance of survival in many ways that we just cannot reciprocate.

This time of year, rescues and shelters are flooded with calls about kittens, so knowing when to watch, when to wait, and when to act can make a BIG difference.
