Shadow Cats joins forces with local
trappers to rescue and TNR dozens of
community cats.

to live and call home.
However, our population is increasing in
ways we would like to control. The
unsterilized and free roaming cats in Round

thought was safe haven across the street in
another yard. She was alone with her five
kittens.
