“We were literally swimming in cats.”
In this episode, Mike describes the profound improvements and progress for cats he has seen in his 20+ year career at the MSPCA. By implementing programs to reduce the stress of cats in the shelter, aggressively targeting communities with low cost spay/neuter services, and implementing creative adoption promotions, Mike’s adoption center has achieved a 92% live release rate, and can now focus on the challenge of finding homes for “hard to place” cats. He also discusses his views on pediatric spay/neuter, and how barn cat programs can be a winning solution for cats with aggression or house soiling issues.
