T:When it comes to stray cats,we have to talk about the high cat population growth rate.Stray cat population management is an important worldwide issue.How to deal with stray cats has long been a controversial problem.Attempts to rescue all stray cats and find them home is neither practical nor possible.Removing and relocating all of them is not practical,either. TNR,which means“Trap neuter and return”is the only method proven to be humane and effective in controlling stray cat population growth.So next time you find a stray cat,you can consult this mind map to see how to help it.
