The solution

The Humane Society of Morocco believes the problem needs to be addressed at its very root. As many cats as possible need to be spayed or neutered to prevent the unwanted litters that make up the bulk of the overpopulation problem.

The HSM performs hundreds of spay and neuter surgeries every year. That sounds like a lot, but the cat overpopulation problem doesn’t seem to be subsiding. To see any difference in Morocco’s cat overpopulation problem, three actions need to be taken:

1. Any owned cat must be spayed or neutered, even if it’s an indoor cat.
2. Stray cats must be rescued and spayed or neutered before they are adopted out to loving families.
3. Feral cats can be trapped, neutered, and returned through ourTNR Program.
