As we begin our trapping for the November TNR run, we want to share some program information with the public as we are asked many of the same questions!
🌟Trapping will ONLY take place on properties that have given permission. Trapping forms can be filled out with the ACO giving permission to trap on your property. (580)726-2424
*Filling out the form does not mean we will immediately begin trapping on your property, it just gives us the permission to do so as funds become available.
🌟Trapping will only be done by the City ACO and TNR representatives. Public trapping will NOT be included in this program. If you trap a cat on your property, do not bring it to the shelter expecting it to be added to the program.
🌟At this time, trapping is being completed in “hot spots”. We have several cat colonies with 30+ cats in one area, however we are still trapping on properties that have filled out the trapping permission form.
🌟This program is a trap, neuter, release prografor stray/feral cats, not personal pets. We will not accept any personal pets in this program.
🌟This program is solely based on your generous donations at this time as we await grant opportunities. The number of cats we are able to do each month will be entirely based on the funds available from donations. Donations can be made directly at Ark Vet clinic, City Hall, or we have digital options through Venmo and PayPal.
🌟Additional ways to help: 1’x1’x3’ animal traps, clorox wipes, 13 gal trash bags and cat litter can be donated at the shelter!
‼️This program is made available from the hard work and dedication of volunteers, Dr. Kilhoffer, and our City ACO. It is never acceptable to demand, bully, or message/approach any of these individuals in a negative manner because you have a cat problem in your area. We are very aware there is a cat overpopulation in Hobart and are working very hard to make a difference.
