Feral Cat Workshop – October 21, 2017 @ Riverview City Hall
Oct 21 @ 11:00 am – 1:00 pm

Do you have stray cats hanging around?  Do you want to help them, but don’t know where to start?

Come to our FREE feral cat workshop to learn more about TNR – trap, neuter, return. You’ll be able to make a feral shelter out of a plastic tote, and get hints and tips from other trappers.

Southgate Lowe’s donated a limited number of materials to make the shelters, and they will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis on the day of the workshop, one set per person.   If you want to guarantee that you’ll have materials to make a shelter, you should bring the following with you:

A large plastic covered tub/tote (approximately 30 gallons)
A small plastic covered tub/tote (approximately 20 gallons)
A 12-inch plastic flower pot.  Choose a pot that does not taper too much at the bottom if possible
A hair dryer

To receive email updates on the workshop, email Gina at [email protected].
