Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is the process in which community cats are humanely trapped and brought to a veterinarian to be spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and eartipped (the universal sign that a cat has been spayed/neutered through a TNR program). Then, they are returned to their outdoor homes. TNR ends cats' breeding cycle ensuring fewer cats end up being euthanized in shelters.
