Catch-Neuter-Return Efforts

CNR’s main initiative is the Capture–Neuter–Return program. This humane approach helps to stabilize the population of community dogs and cats.

  • Trap: Stray dogs and cats are humanely caught.
  • Neuter: Animals are spayed or neutered to control overpopulation.
  • Vaccinate & Tag: Each animal is vaccinated against rabies and ear-tagged for identification.
  • Return: Animals are safely returned to their original locations, reducing conflict and disease risks.

Ear Tipping

CNR New Cairo surgically removes a small portion of one ear while the animal is under anesthesia. This visible marker shows the animal has been spayed or neutered, preventing unnecessary trapping and surgeries of already sterilized animals. This makes population control efforts more efficient.

Feeding Stray Animals

CNR New Cairo provides regular food and clean water to stray animals in the areas they serve. This helps maintain the health of sterilized animals, supports population control efforts, and reduces competition and aggression among strays.
