Urban Rescuers
A Revealing Documentary about the Feral Cat Dilemma
Sun., April 29, 2:30 p.m., KPTS TV, Channel 8

"Urban Rescuers" profiles a group of fiercely dedicated animal welfare crusaders in Los Angeles who, using Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR), work tirelessly to feed, trap, sterilize, and care for feral (undomesticated) cat colonies living outdoors. Examining the ethical dilemma presented by feral cats, this award-winning documentary will interview leading animal advocates both in favor of, and opposed to, TNR.

At the close of the show, interested viewers will be invited to contact Friends of Felines, Ray Huff's respected feral cat rescue group in Sedgwick, KS. The hope is that the TV exposure will generate enough public interest to become the first step in putting together a Central Kansas feral cat alliance. For information about how you can help improve the lives of feral cats, call Friends of Felines, (316) 772-0329. Or you can help online at www.felinefriendsks.com.  

The Caring Hands Humane Society endorses Trap, Neuter, Return as the only proven method to control and manage feral cat populations. This segment of free roaming animals do not belong in shelters as they are not suitable for placement into homes, however just because they are not good candidates for adoption does not mean they should be trapped and taken to shelters where our only option is to kill them. They too have a right to live!
