COLONY CAREGIVING

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS
As a caregiver for outdoor cats, you may be approached by local authorities at some point. In some communities, animal-related ordinances are enforced by full-time animal control officers; in others, police officers, sheriffs, or code enforcement officers might be assigned to animal control duties or wear several hats, including animal control. Here in the City of Palm Springs, our city endorses TNR as the most effective and humane approach to community cat management.
