TNR is a great program and can only benefit the City of Las Cruces. There’s no downside to TNR and if there are citizens willing to volunteer to support and improve the lives of animals in need....why not? And if the City is only looking at the bottom line...TNR is more cost effective than trap and euthanize. Thank you.

Feral cats deserve compassionate treatment from people. Please approve TNR measures that control population humanely.

I agree and think this is a great idea to solve our overcrowding of the animal shelter and increase of feral cats in our area.

I was on the committee that drafted the present Las Cruces city animal ordinance. It was a very good ordinance that included a workable TNR solution. Unfortunately, after the city legal staff and council "improved" the draft, what we were left with is pretty unworkable.
Go for it!!!

TNR programs are vital to large communities like Las Cruces! If we can keep the population down we can manage the strays we already have instead of letting them reproduce more. Statistics have shown it cheaper in the long run to TNR then to have these cats picked up by Animal Control and help until They are put to sleep. We absolutely need a larger TNR program and city assistance with this issue.

The current draft proposal for the Las Cruces City Animal Ordinance allows for legal TNR. It is not currently legal for our community to come together and volunteer their time and help solve a common problem. There are very loud voices that do not want this to happen. Without TNR, the only thing on the table to address the issue of free roaming cats is trap and kill. The only time trap and kill has ever been successful is on desert islands as multi year, multi million dollar projects.
