Cats in Rescue

You also want to bear in mind that in rescues, cats get the care they may not have received in their previous home. And while some strays are skittish, not all of them are. Sweep is amazingly gutsy people-wise, and he's been a stray for a good while.

Trap Neuter Replace.

Basically, neutering a feral and then putting it back into it's own environment. Fairer on them usually.

Trap, neuter, release. Basically catch the cat, get him / her neutered & put back where they came from.

Smudgely - no idea why, they had been there a few years when I first saw them (and that is nearly 4 years ago).
Snoof - that is a very good point, and one I say to myself at times, esp during times of illness that if they were with their previous owner, they might not have the same kind of care.
