Trap Neuter Return
After a thorough review of current and projected funding for 2026, the Nova Scotia SPCA has made the difficult decision to place the Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) program on hiatus until 2027.
Returning Feral Cats
Returning the sterilized cat to its colony is crucial to reducing the colony size as new members will not join a feral cat colony with a stable number of neutered cats. Trap-Neuter-Return Population Control Programs maintain the colony in a healthy and secure state leading up to the eventual attrition of members.
The Nova Scotia SPCA believes that not feeding feral cats is not the solution because starving cats will still mate. Concerned residents who are interested in providing food for or managing colonies are encouraged to contact us at catcolony@spcans.ca and together with local rescue groups, we can provide advice and support.
Kittens that are within the critical window for domestication are removed, socialized and adopted.
