Rescue Spotlight: CedarPark/Leander Community Cats - A Trap/Neuter/Release Program

Today I wanted to give a shout out to a local group that is making a big difference in their community.
The Cedar Park/Leander Community Cats program is a very small organization, but they make a difference! Their program focuses mainly on caring for and maintaining the local feral cat colonies. They follow the Trap/Neuter/Release protocols; This allows for feral cats to spayed or neutered and then returned to the neighborhood colonies where they live. These kinds of feral cats are usually completely wild and not suited to living in a home; getting them spayed or neutered and then returned to their "wild" environment allows them to live their life without contributing to the overpopulation problem in their colony.

The volunteers in this group also try to isolate and catch kittens from the colonies; the kittens CAN be rehabilitated and can usually be adopted as they get older.

Ginger and Snap are two of the kittens that this group brought in from one of their feral cat colonies.
Their mother was also trapped, fixed, and released back to her colony.

Thank you Cedar Park/ Leander Community Cats! You all do a wonderful job!
