At Crossroads, we are committed to promoting the well-being of animals and fostering compassionate communities. One way we do this is through our Trap-Neuter-Release (TNR) Program—designed specifically to support local barn, shop, and property owners in humanely managing small groups of community cats on their properties.

Our goal is to provide an affordable and effective option for barn, shop, and property owners who care for the cats that live and work on their properties—helping to keep their spaces rodent-free while ensuring healthier, more stable cat populations and supporting balance within the local environment.  

At Crossroads, we are committed to promoting the well-being of animals and fostering compassionate, responsible communities. One way we do this is through our Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) Program—an important initiative focused on helping local barn, shop, and property owners humanely manage small groups of community cats living on their properties.

What Are Community Cats?

Community cats are unowned, free-roaming cats that live outdoors. Many are feral or only partially socialized with people. While some may receive food or care from kind neighbors and property owners, they are not house pets and typically avoid close human contact.

Our Approach

Crossroads’ TNR Program is designed to work directly with individual property, barn, and shop owners who want to manage their small cat populations in a way that’s responsible to the broader community. Through humane trapping, sterilization (spay or neuter), vaccination, ear tipping, and return to their working environments or outdoor homes, we can help stabilize these populations and improve the cats’ overall health and well-being.

Why It Matters

This focused, small-scale approach helps:
· Prevent the birth of unwanted litters
· Reduce illness and disease among outdoor cats
· Minimize nuisance behaviors like fighting and yowling
· Support harmony between property owners, neighbors, and the community

By empowering individuals to take compassionate and responsible action, Crossroads is helping to create healthier environments for both animals and people. Together, we can make a meaningful difference—one barn, one shop, and one small cat colony at a time.
