Show Notes
In this episode, Karen describes how she went about determining what type of efforts and program might best solve the community cat problem in Louisville. She's a big believer in planning and patience; when founding Alley Cat Advocates, she spent a whole year developing organizational infrastructure so that its future activities would have a sound base to build on. She also talks about coalition building with both public and non-profit animal control and rescues, volunteer engagement, and the importance of partnering not only with community cat caretakers, but respecting and assisting those who prefer to have cats out of their yards and neighborhoods. "We must have a culture of caring," she notes.
