When I’m told it doesn’t work my reply is so how’s that old method of catch and kill working out for you?  (Wait for an answer).  That method has been in place for decades and  if  that  was working there wouldn’t be an issue or this conversation.  There is a sever over population of outside cats nation wide.  So how about we try something  different?  What can it hurt sure can’t make the population grown where TNR has been put into place .  You of course can word it a lot differently but that’s the jest of it.

@Peter Wolf It is a conversation on the Milwaukee Area Domestic Animal Control Commission, they posted on their facebook page yesterday (MADACC). 

I've been pulling cats from their euthanasia list for years and doing TNR.  Their director Karen thinks I'm a pain in the butt.
Yesterday they actually said they were going to try some new things so I responded and of course was immediately put down and then I was told that TNR is a failure I know it's not I see it work I've TNR thousands of cats and it makes a huge difference I really wish we could have some help from someone that she might listen to, I trapped with Urban cat coalition.

@Pamela Hodermann: Which shelter is this? What's being done to promote change?

Thank you so much, we see that it works, but animal control baslessly calls it a failure
