Fiske Terrace TNR Effort Asks Neighbors To Keep Pets Inside & Not To Feed Strays

We noticed signs this morning on Avenue H asking Fiske Terrace and nearby neighbors to assist with a trap, neuter, release effort going on until Thursday, April 24.

Flyers say cats are being trapped from E 17th to E 18th Streets and Glenwood Avenue to Avenue H, and that in order for the operation to be successful, local strays need to be hungry enough to enter the traps set–so if you normally leave some food out for them, please don’t do so again until after Thursday morning.

Neighbors with indoor/outdoor cats should also be aware that cats found outside with no collar and identifying tags may also be trapped, fixed, and ear tipped, so it might be best to keep Socks indoors for a few days.

Anyone with questions about this TNR campaign can contact Laura and Jack at 347-240-5350, and for general inquiries about TNR or to attend a workshop and get a $10-per-cat rebate next month, call 212-662-5761 or visit Neighborhood Cats.
