help cats in your neighborhood?

Use the sample letter to send to local city council members and the sample petition to gather names of your community residents in support of cats and TNR programs, to convince city council and other local government groups to take the humane approach to managing feral cats. At the same time, use ACR’s factsheets to establish and implement a TNR program in your community, while addressing common residents’ complaints about feral cats.
 
You can also take action and help cats across the United States, by using sample letters to tell companies and charities that continue to test on animals, that you will not purchase their products or support them until they take a clear stance against such cruel and unnecessary practices. And utilize sample letters to help voice your protest against vivisection to government decision makers, so that animals will be protected under the law and such torture will someday be a thing of the past.
 
Please feel free to reproduce these sample letters, emails and petitions and to alter them so they clearly convey your personal message. ACR’s Cat Activist Packet is not only meant to improve the situation for the cats in your neighborhood and community, but to also help improve the situation for ALL cats living in the United States. Thank you for your compassion and for making your voice heard.
