I've noticed the prison population also seems to be the same or growing . . . . what other options are you considering?

Thank god for poeple who care about ferals. Cats do not do well on their own without humans. They starve and transmit diseases not to mention repopulation of more starved, diseased animals. I love no more homeless pets for giving a damn.

What a great article! I agree with Dayna - it's great to see people caring for feral cats. I've seen plenty of studies about inmates caring for unwanted pets and they've all been really positive... Kudos to No More Homeless Pets and the State Prison for finding a solution to the problem that benefits everyone! Hopefully people will realize the inhumane consequences for dumping their animals and we'll see less of this kind of problem in the future.

Cats are such wonderful animals. Trap, Neuter, Return is the best for helping feral cats, along with people, including prison inmates, who care the cats by providing food and shelter. I also agree that this is a very positive activity for the inmates to be involved with.
I also urge people to be resonsible pet owners by spaying and neutering cats and dogs.

Good article. It proves that not all inmates are sadistic monsters. Prison is not a happy place. This program gives inmates as well as prison staff the chance to care for something other than themselves. Be good...y'all!! Philip.
