The City doesn't run a TNR program. TNR is is all done by crazy cat people (like me). They do offer vouchers and LA County has offered programs for reduced spay/neuter programs. Currently, Clinico has a "beat the Heat" promo going on where they will S/N for $25/$15. All of us that do rescue give vaccinations and will only adopt out spayed/neutered/vaccinated kittens. There are areas that have feral colonies and there has been an ongoing effort to TNR and tip the ferals. There is usually a volunteer care-taker for the colony as well. Everyone does fundraising of some sort of just pays for the expenses for the cats they foster.
The City doesn't euthanize on capture unless the cat is injured or very ill. They give them a whole 3 days before that happens.
