Is there any way to get rid of a feral cat colony?
A. Yes, you need to pull the plug on the kitty night club now open sign. This is done by trapping the cats, spaying or neutering the healthy ones, and releasing them back into the colony. This is called the “TNR” program for Trap Neuter and Return. This puts an end to the noise and smells that make the area a cat magnet. However, because cats are territorial, they will still work to keep other cats out. With all the cats fixed, you will start to see the colony shrink, not grow. Many colonies disappear completely in just a few years.
