Feral Power Too
is a joint
program between
LAA and the Wild
Cat Foundation of
Lafayette, the
area’s only TNR
(trap, neuter,
return) group.
It’s a true ‘no
kill’ solution
that humanely
addresses the
population issue
of feral cats in
our community.
Subsidized by
LAA and Wild Cat
Foundation,
feral cat
caretakers or
concerned
citizens in
Lafayette parish
can - for a
greatly reduced
fee of only $40
per cat -
proactively take
a vital part in
reducing the
number of feral
cats in our
community. |
|
Why not simply
euthanize Feral
Cats?
Because removing
a feral cat
colony creates a
void that will
quickly be
re-populated by
new feral cats.
Controlling the
growth of an
existing colony
is not only
humane, but also
the only
long-term
solution.

Feral Power Too
guidelines
-
•Wild Cat Foundation volunteers will train feral cat caretakers in humane trapping, post-operative care, and will offer advice and suggestions on maintaining a healthy colony.
-
•Traps and equipment will be loaned out after completion of training.
-
•Selective neutering is not encouraged - all feral cats and kittens within a colony should be neutered as quickly as possible to avoid more breeding.
-
•All cats will be returned to the trap site. The Feral Power Too program does not relocate cats or colonies to other areas.
Benefits
-
•Humanely reduces the number of kittens in your neighborhood.
-
•Reduces the number of feral kittens and cats killed at Animal Control facilities.
-
•Allows the caretaker to take a more proactive role in monitoring and maintaining a feral cat colony.
-
•Feral Power Too moves our community closer towards a No Kill society.
