ABQ Cat Grooming

What if the key to reducing kitten intake wasn't trapping more cats — but trapping smarter?

In this episode, Stacy sits down with Chelsea Winter, Community Cat Program Manager at Street Cat Hub in Albuquerque, New Mexico, to talk about what whole-colony TNR really looks like in practice — and the remarkable results it can deliver.

With over 50,000 cats sterilized in the organization's history and a 30% drop in kitten intake at their local shelter, Street Cat Hub has built a model that's both inspiring and replicable. Chelsea shares how her team uses shelter intake data, DOA mapping, and community relationships to target "hot pockets" — concentrating their efforts where they'll make the biggest difference.

You'll also hear practical wisdom on managing an 800-colony waitlist, working with reluctant feeders, and building a culture where TNR becomes everyone's responsibility — not just the rescue community's.

Whether you're running a TNR program or just getting started, this episode is full of strategies you can bring home. 🙌
