Trap Neuter Vaccinate Return helps to control community cat populations in Port St. Lucie

Trap Neuter Vaccinate and Return (TNVR) is the internationally accepted, effective and humane method of controlling free-roaming cat populations. It is a non-lethal alternative to the trap-and-kill method of attempting to manage cat populations. TNVR is a management technique in which community cats (aka stray or outdoor cats) are humanely trapped for the purpose of transporting them to a spay/neuter clinic, where they are evaluated and sterilized by a licensed veterinarian, vaccinated against rabies, microchipped, and ear-tipped for identification. Following recovery, the cats are returned to the location where they were humanely trapped so they can live out their lives.

Bryan Lloyd, operations manager with Port St. Lucie Animal Control, talks about TNVR and why it works.
