Atlanta TNR Additional Resources

TNR strategic planning

  • CATLANTA (hosted by Atlantapets.org) is a resource for people wanting to implement TNR (Trap-Neuter-Return) programs in their neighborhoods, businesses, or other areas of interest. The cats are trapped, spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and released back to their neighborhood. CATLANTA provides traps and trapping instructions and utilizes the LifeLine Spay & Neuter Clinic to spay or neuter ferals.
  • The Kitty Motel (hosted by Atlantapets.org) is a low-cost boarding facility that plays host to cats from area shelters -- often animals who have been long-time occupants of shelter cages, or those who are having trouble adjusting to the shelter environment. The cats who board there live in a cage-free environment while they await adoption. The rescue groups then take the cats to various adoption events. This facility also was affected considerably by the largesse of Janet Bogle.
  • Adoption Organizations

  • No More Homeless Pets Atlanta also Atlanta Pets.org and Lifeline Animal Project (LAP) is directed by Best Friends Animal Society, an extremely well coordinated international animal welfare organization located on 33,000 acres in Utah. Achieving No More Homeless Pets in Atlanta is a daunting task in a metro area of 4.5 million people that euthanizes 90,000 animals a year. Under the direction of Rebecca Guinn, who previously had co-founded Atlanta's Lifeline Animal Project (LAP), Best Friends Animal Society in Atlanta oversees a variety of programs that are having an impact. The No More Homeless Pets Atlanta Clinic opened in September and began performing spay/neuter surgeries. It is not open to the public, but works with numerous shelters and rescues. For example, the program partners with DeKalb County Animal Control to spay or neuter every one of that agency's animals before they are adopted.  AtlantaPets.org is one of their most successful collaborative efforts , Atlanta's "virtual animal shelter." The program brings 70 rescue groups and a dozen animal control facilities together on one website (complete with links to individual sites). At any given time there are 1,800 animals listed. The site is visited 15,000 times a month -- with between 6,000 and 8,000 unique visitors.
