If you re dealing with a colony of 10 to 11 feral cats, how can you trap and neuter all before one reproduces? asked Donna Sicuranza, public relations director for FeralStat.
The trick is progestogen. It s FDA-approved for people, and vets have given it to cats for more than 30 years to treat feline disorders, Sicuranza said.
The cat pill, so to speak, is not the best way to deal with cat overpopulation. That would be surgical sterilization, Sicuranza said.
But, people who care for a whole bunch of cats and have no access to vets, or cannot afford to pay vet bills for many, many cats, FeralStat s a good solution, she said.
