Thank you for making such a good difference.

What a great looking film. Will definitely have to pick up copies as gifts.
September 13th, 2010 at 7:49 pm
i took in a feral kitten – she is still timid and shy 9 years later! i think TNR is a great cause!
September 13th, 2010 at 7:50 pm
Nice giveaway for a GREAT cause! I’m a Brooklyn native, my first two cats were both ferals from the neighborhood, so I saw first hand the feral problem we have. My sister rescued a feral litter of five kittens just two years ago, we need to make a lot of progress with spay/neuter. And also teach people that ferals, properly socialized, can make great pets!

I have a friend who’s mother adopts/captures, feeds and spays/neuters all of the feral cats in her area. This woman has a big heart, and this would make a perfect gift for her as well as make a point to the public.
September 13th, 2010 at 8:04 pm
That’s a really good idea. I want to help.
September 13th, 2010 at 8:09 pm
I know what its like. I have 7 indoor cats AND a sorta feral colony of 12-15 cats. Up until 3 years ago the houses on both side of mine were empty. Now I have people on one side who get upset when the cats leave paw prints on their cars. Nice bodies noisey engine, bad breaks and mufflers.Stupid idiot. Now I have to worry cause the other house was bought rehabbed and instead of living in it the owners are going to rent it out and theydon’t want the cats going thru their yard and don’t care if the people who rent like cats or not.I told them to warn their renters about the cats and not to hurt them. That would tick me off and make for a bad neighbor to have.
My husbands health it not good and will never get better. These cats hold my sanity in their paws. They give me focus on something good.I can only hope the new neighbors love cats as I do.I have a couple newbees top be trapped and fix and hope to do so before winter.My second feeding/sleeping crate will be done before winter in hope that my 4 across the street move in. I”m in the middle of a city, not the suburbs or country. GO FERALS!!!!!!!

Thank you so much for publicizing this issue and advocating for ferals. (My two
adopted ferals – Sweet Maudie and her son Louie Digits – thank you, too!)
September 13th, 2010 at 9:22 pm
I love these – TNR is wonderful. Our two cats are rescues, one a wonderful black cat which are notoriously hard to adopt, and they are so precious. I talk about TNR with all who will listen.
September 13th, 2010 at 9:31 pm
I live in an apartment complex and am the registered feral colony caregiver. I hope to get some help someday. It’s just gotten so expensive since I lost my job. And they just keep coming. I TNR them and more come. kudos to the manager for knowing and understanding though. It’s just so sad how cruel and irresponsible people are. And where did the idea come from that you keep your dog in and let your cat roam all over? Hah! I’m also a foster mom and lots of other volunteer work for the OK Humane Society. Education, education, education……
September 13th, 2010 at 9:45 pm
yay for TNR!
September 13th, 2010 at 10:04 pm
So much work to do! Thanks for helping the ferals. I have a “house feral”, Coco. It has taken us 7 years to touch her
September 13th, 2010 at 10:16 pm
cuuuute! I love the bumper sticker, almost wish it was a magnet to actually use it on my car though, my laptop will have to do!
=^..^=
September 13th, 2010 at 11:40 pm
Oh man, I want this way too much. We’re starting up a TNR group at work!
September 14th, 2010 at 4:03 am
Weeeeee!
September 14th, 2010 at 4:19 am
Anything for animals, as they can’t really speak for themselves
September 14th, 2010 at 5:10 am
Adorable! Would love to have one
September 14th, 2010 at 5:38 am
Would love to win this and greatly appreciate the week-long focus on ferals and TNR.
September 14th, 2010 at 6:25 am
TNR is TNRad!
September 14th, 2010 at 7:12 am
Thanks for supporting feral cats & TNR. My semi-ferals appreciate it!
September 14th, 2010 at 8:03 am
It’s hip to snip…!!!! Spay and neuter your pets.
September 14th, 2010 at 8:07 am
This week dedicated to feral cat/TNR issues is so important!
September 14th, 2010 at 8:17 am
Great Job this week focusing on Ferals!
September 14th, 2010 at 9:13 am
This is such a great cause. Thank you for highlighting it on your blog!
September 14th, 2010 at 9:47 am
Great looking shirts for a great cause! I’m considering giving these shirts as Christmas gifts this year!
September 14th, 2010 at 10:08 am
I cannot say thank you enough for promoting awareness of the issue of feral cats and TNR. Great work!
September 14th, 2010 at 11:07 am
I’m so glad you’re promoting feral work. My shelter has a TNR program and it’s so hard sometimes to explain to people why they should care and why we do what we do.
September 14th, 2010 at 11:41 am
Feral for Life!
September 14th, 2010 at 1:59 pm
Great organization! I couldn’t finish watching the trailer though, outdoor cats make me really sad. I couldn’t imagine my two girls wandering the streets. I wish I lived in a town where I could help out, but we don’t even have a shelter.
September 14th, 2010 at 2:41 pm
I love ferals and wish more people would TNR and just let the kitties live happily!
September 14th, 2010 at 3:37 pm
Feral cats are important too. They need the recognition.
September 14th, 2010 at 3:40 pm
We are the feral magnet of our neighborhood (we now have 6 successfully integrated feral cats in our family!). TNR’s R Us!!… Thanks for everyone that educates more people to feral cats and the life-saving TNR program!!
September 14th, 2010 at 3:46 pm
Maybe if drivers on my family’s rural road see me driving with that bumper sticker, they’ll realize they need to SLOW DOWN for the feral cats. 6 cats and our family’s dog in the last year. Breaks my heart.
September 14th, 2010 at 5:18 pm
Will definitely go check out the site!
September 14th, 2010 at 5:20 pm
Either color would be fine thank you. We rescued our Kallie. Our Humane Society is opening a TNR center soon.
September 14th, 2010 at 6:08 pm
the article was very interesting. so many people have no idea what TNR is and how important it is.
September 14th, 2010 at 6:53 pm
I love the shirt.
I also think organizations such as fix nation are wonderful!
September 14th, 2010 at 7:10 pm
This a great cause! Thanks for putting the spotlight on it.
September 14th, 2010 at 7:10 pm
TNR is amazing!
September 14th, 2010 at 8:07 pm
This is a wonderful message and work you are doing, keep pushing!
September 14th, 2010 at 8:31 pm
Love it… wish there were more TNR programs
September 14th, 2010 at 9:39 pm
I love the Feral t-shirt design, and bumper sticker too! One of my pet cats was once a feral kitty…we brought her in after my mother-in-law had fed her and coaxed her into enjoying human attention during the cat’s backyard visits over the course of several months. Our cat had already mothered a litter of kittens when she was not even a year old. Unfortunately we never found the location of the kittens, but I hope they are doing ok. (If they are anything like their mommy, perhaps they charmed their way into good homes!) Here’s to TNR work as well as rescue/adoption!
September 15th, 2010 at 2:53 am
Great info on TNR! Bumper sticker is too cute!
September 15th, 2010 at 6:19 am
Thank you for all the work you do. I volunteer at an animal shelter and we are so overrun with cats that we’re trying to get a bigger facility. I brake for ferals (and then try to rescue/TNR them)!
September 15th, 2010 at 6:47 am
Loving ferals means supporting TNR.
September 15th, 2010 at 6:48 am
I am currently trying to rescue three abandoned strays(seperate families)that were left behind when the two families moved. I caught one kitten and one older female. I never knew of this site and am happy to have found you guys!
September 15th, 2010 at 7:21 am
I love the sentiment as well as the art!
September 15th, 2010 at 7:21 am
All of my cats were found abandoned as kittens over the past 10 years. Of course I kept them and now I have 5 plus one feral who lives here and we shelter him during bad weather and he has a bed with heating pad in the winter in our garage. He has been here 3 years – we have never touched him – he came as an adult, survived IKE somehow when we evacuated and was waiting when we returned. He comes up close to us and is very sweet but does not want to be touched – I have war wounds to prove it ! I want to have him neutered but he may be too smart for a trap. So we are really at a loss as to what to do about getting him neutered, ear mites checked out, flea situation, etc. He is very healthy and I guess he may be about 3 or 4 years old.
I appreciate the good work that feral organizations do to keep our feral cat populations alive in all of the different cities.
September 15th, 2010 at 7:24 am
Love that word is getting out more!
September 15th, 2010 at 7:40 am
I want to show the world what TNR is about. Thanks for all the work you do!
