"Sometimes the best tip is just not skipping the basics.” This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund and the Community Cat Clinic. In the first half of this special two-part webinar replay, Bryan Kortis of Neighborhood Cats walks us through the foundational and intermediate techniques that can make or break a successful Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) effort. Drawing from decades of field experience, Bryan shares tried-and-true strategies for preparing a trapping site, creating effective feeding patterns, and managing large colony trappings with confidence. Listeners will come away with an understanding of the practical tools—like gravity traps, bait techniques, and trap mats—that make trapping more efficient and less stressful for cats and caregivers alike. Bryan also offers valuable seasonal tips, including how to trap safely in winter and how to take advantage of predictable feline behavior. The episode wraps up with an introduction to the monumental post-wildfire trapping campaign in Maui, which sets the stage for Part 2.

"Our industry is full of people with big hearts — but running a shelter takes more than heart. It takes structure, strategy, and systems." This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund. Whether you're running a grassroots cat rescue or leading a multi-million-dollar shelter, the question remains the same: how do we keep the doors open and services running? Fundraising expert and shelter operations consultant Tim Crum joins the podcast to tackle this question head-on. With over $400 million raised and 300+ organizations advised, Tim brings an unmatched depth of insight into what makes animal welfare groups thrive — and where they falter. From his early days in architecture to his unexpected pivot into the shelter world, Tim's journey reveals how diverse professional skills can translate into nonprofit success. In this thought-provoking conversation, Tim dives into why fundraising shouldn't be feared, how shelters can better manage staff burnout and retention, and why it's time for a paradigm shift in how we house and help cats. He also highlights how intake diversion, working cat programs, and strategic communication can transform how we serve both animals and people. If your organization struggles with funding, staffing, or long-term planning — this is the episode you can't miss. Press Play Now For: The difference between writing grants and building donor relationships How to attract and retain shelter staff despite low wages The real impact of the veterinary shortage on community cats Why loud music in cat housing might be doing more harm than good What working cat programs and intake diversion really look like in action A fresh take on how to build community support instead of barriers Why it's never too late to bring your professional skills into animal welfare Resources & Links: Animal Shelter Fundraising (http://animalshelterfundraising.com) Animal Shelter Services (http://animalshelterservices.com) Children's Books by Tim Crum (http://timcrum.com) Sponsor Links: Maddie's Fund (https://www.communitycatspodcast.com/maddies611) Follow & Review We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

It's that time of year again! TIme for Jingle Paw Rock! Never heard of Jingle Paw Rock? We haven't either. Literally just made it up. We make up a lot of wacko ideas for adoption promotions in this podcast. We even got some inspiration from 1960s/1970s key parties - Yes, we're talking about swingers. Confused and possibly disturbed? Listen to the episode to find out what we mean! We also chat about our some of our favorite things we've seen this year, like the viral Grown Ass Adult Dog campaign and a pupper and her human dressed as Taco Bell. We also tackle the semi-controversial topic of “are pets presents?” (We're prepared for hate-mail. Come at us, 'bro.) All of the ideas in the podcast have one thing in common: They are all community focused. They're about making your shelter an integral part of your community and a place people love to go. Got other ideas? Let us know! Oh, and take a shot every time Regina says “like” and you'll be drunk before the 15-minute mark.
