Free-Ranging Cat Management Plan for San Juan National Historic Site

The National Park Service is planning a strategy for management of free-ranging cats at the historic site at Old San Juan. The cats are part of a trap-neuter-vaccinate-return (TNVR) program, but the park’s proposed action involves removing the cats. (Exactly what that means is unclear.) Anyone interested in commenting is invited to do so by 11-22-2022.

The letter below is what I submitted in support of continuing the TNVR program. I am posting it here because the information might be useful to others who would like to weigh in.
