A COLLABORATION BETWEEN LAFAYETTE ANIMAL AID AND WILD CAT FOUNDATION
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.

Feral Power Too guidelines

  1. •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.

  2. •Traps and equipment will be loaned out after completion of training.

  3. •Selective neutering is not encouraged - all feral cats and kittens within a colony should be neutered as quickly as possible to avoid more breeding.
