The Community Cats Podcast

"You're not trying to make the situation perfect. You're just trying to improve it." This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie’s Fund. Part 2 of "From the Backyard to the Front Page: Building a TNR Movement" dives into the operational tactics that sustain and grow a Trap-Neuter-Return program. In this recorded webinar, Bryan Kortis shifts from early movement-building to the nuts and bolts of long-term implementation, covering everything from trap banks and caretaker support systems to negotiating municipal cooperation and adapting strategies to fit different community types. Listeners will gain practical insights into building a network of services, supporting grassroots participation, and working effectively with both rural and urban populations. Bryan also shares hard-earned lessons on using pilot projects, engaging local government, and maintaining momentum without exhausting your organization’s capacity.
