1 Free-Roaming Cats and Nonsurgical Sterilization Margaret R. Slater, DVM, PhD College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences Texas A&M University College Station, TX Outline! How big is the problem?! What do people think about them?! Challenges for implementation Contraceptive Methods for Pet Population Control 1
2 Free-Roaming Cats! Any cat not confined to an owner s house or property " Includes friendly and feral (unsocial) cats " Includes owned, loosely owned and unowned cats " Numbers and distribution likely vary with location! Climate, local laws, human density, food sources Contraceptive Methods for Pet Population Control 2
3 How many cats in the U.S.?! Owned cats " 38 million households own a cat " 90.5 million cats owned! Fed cats " 9-13% of households feed unowned cats " About 3-4 cats fed per household! So fed unowned cats about 1/3 to! of total cat population! Total unowned? Total free-roaming? Contraceptive Methods for Pet Population Control 3
4 Small Texas Town Study! 1,322 households; 28% owned cats! 700 owned cats (~500 allowed out)! total outside cats counted! 13% of households fed unowned " Median of 2 cats, average of 3 " 550 to 950 unowned fed cats! So free-roaming cats about = owned? " This includes owned indoor/outdoor cats " Unowned cats maybe 50% of total? Opinions About Free-Roaming Cats! Wide variation based on complaints, anecdotes " From part of family to vermin! In small-town Texas " 68% saw free-roaming cats " 13% fed them " 42% thought they were a problem " Nuisance 42%; public health 24%; animal welfare 21% Contraceptive Methods for Pet Population Control 4
5 Trap, Neuter and Return! One way to assess people s opinions! Live trap, sterilize, vaccinate and return cats to original location! Monitor and feed! Adopt young kittens and tame adults! Quite controversial but becoming more widely accepted! Some data that it is an effective population control method Contraceptive Methods for Pet Population Control 5
6 Surgical Sterilization Benefits! Sterilization decreases fighting, roaming, noise! No breeding so no litters, less stress! No unwanted kittens! Overall improvement in health " Gain in weight after neutering! Caretakers often report become more sociable, improved coat quality IL State Law! Feral cats not owned, caretakers doing TNR not legally owners " Feral cats not owned so not part of the usual adoption/euthanasia system " Caretakers eligible for new spay/neuter funding! Veterinarians and municipalities doing TNR exempt from liability except for willful or wanton misconduct Contraceptive Methods for Pet Population Control 6
7 Other Locations Doing TNR! Maricopa County, AZ! Ithaca, NY! Cape May, NJ! Oahu, HI! Novato, CA! University campuses! Army Navy Country Club, VA! New York City! Philadelphia Contraceptive Methods for Pet Population Control 7
8 Challenges to Implementation! Legal status of unowned cats " Varies from place to place " Wildlife vs. domestic animal " Who is responsible for them? " What ordinances are present and how do they affect unowned cats?! Controversies over TNR " Wildlife, public health, animal welfare " Based on predation, rabies, cat health Challenges to Implementation! Controlling other nuisance behaviors " Fighting, roaming, spraying! Permanence of sterilization " Feral cats in managed colonies may live years " Repeat injections not going to happen " Repeat topical is possible Contraceptive Methods for Pet Population Control 8
9 Challenges to Implementation! Administering the contraceptive " Catching the cats! Traps, trained trappers, safety " How administered! Oral nice but never happen because of concern over target species only " Not other cats, other wildlife, humans! Injection or topical still requires catching the cats " Who will administer it?! Veterinarians, animal control, lay people Contraceptive Methods for Pet Population Control 9
10 Other Considerations! Cost " Low-cost spay/neuter: $15 to $40 /cat " Fundraising for this obvious to public! Large numbers of cats need to be done " So it is a potentially large market " But must be inexpensive Conclusions! Free-roaming cats in the U.S. (and other countries) are a fertile market for nonsurgical sterilization! Still controversy about how best to deal with free-roaming cats! Practical implementation issues still present Contraceptive Methods for Pet Population Control 10
