Côte Saint-Luc Cat Trap Neuter Return Program

Côte Saint-Luc Cat Trap Neuter Return Program Trap, Neuter, Return, Maintain of Community Cats in Cote Saint Luc. The overpopulation of feral, homeless cats in our city is a huge cause for concern.

Cote Saint Luc officially launched a Trap, Neuter, Return (TNR) program in March 2011, to humanely trap, sterilize, and return feral cats to their original territory. TNR is proven as the most humane and cost-efficient way of controlling and decreasing the numbers of homeless cats. Councillor Mike Cohen, with Committee Chair Diane Liebling, spearhead the initiative, and along with a dedicated group of volunteers run the program. Supporters include the Cote Saint Luc Animal Hospital, and the group is grateful for the financial support of the City of Cote Saint Luc. The committee maintains a hotline for residents to report feral cats in their area and works to educate the public about the importance of sterilizing cats and to inform the public about cat by-laws in Cote Saint Luc. Annual fundraising activities augment funding the committee receives to ensure the program can meet its objectives. Fundraisers have included an annual concert with the Musicians of the World Symphony Orchestra, a table at the Cote Saint Luc Mega Garage Sale in May, and and online raffle starting in September and going through to the end of November with the draw in December. Donations are always welcome, and tax receipts are available.

Hello All:

‘Tinsel’ and ‘Elf’, now ‘Peanut’ and ‘Butter’ were picked up here in CSL on Christmas Day.
🐾❤️🐈‍⬛🐾❤️🐈‍⬛🐾❤️🐈‍⬛🐾❤️🐈‍⬛🐾❤️🐈‍⬛
I feel quite certain they were abandoned because they were healthy and social. After being lovingly fostered, by committee volunteer Cheryl Roth, they have now been adopted by JS and LP.

Looking at these pictures, I have no doubt they have landed in the right home and will live their best lives ever.

Happy rest of your life, Peanut and Butter.

UPDATE:

Several very knowledgable speakers (Trappers) presented last evening at the VSL city council meeting.

Together these people have literally DECADES of experience in Trap, Neuter, Return, Maintain (TNRM).

They succinctly put forth many examples of how the Proanima model of TNRM can, and should, be improved upon.

The program has been in place for almost 2 months now so they have had plenty of time to interact with, and experience, the new program and its rules and regulations.

We all hope that Proanima will take these points to heart to improve upon their mandate for the betterment of the lives of our feline companions in Montreal.

Next step: Presenting at Montreal City Hall in March.

I will post the date here.

We do not use the services of the SPCA Jean Talon for TNRM, and have never used them for this purpose, as we do it ourselves here in CSL in association with our local vet.

Recently, as of January 1, 2026, the Trap, Neuter, Return, Maintain (TNRM) program at the SPCA Jean Talon has been taken over by Proanima in the East End.

There have been conflicting reports about whether or not this has been a good move, and many issues have been raised about Proanima’s mandate/best practises regarding TNRM.
