TNR activities

Our job usually ends on Dec. 28th and starts from Jan.4th every year.And we have a small ceremony on the last day to appreciate the work well done each other and also on the first day to confirm all members that we'll give all our effort to the job.
Now it's the period for preparation to meet the New Year's Day.We have to clean up whole house from corner to corner, cook the New Year's Day Dishes (we call OSECHI), and prepare some stuffs to meet New Year's Gods...very difficult to explain!
Flower arrangement is also a part of preparation for the New Year.It inclueds some plants like pine,bamboo,etc. that represent "happiness".

But now I'm boaring...I soon stop doing with household stuffs and do Internet sitting in Kotatsu...
I searched about TNR activities on WEB, and I knew even in America TNR program wasn't accepted in public up until just recently.
Now TNR activity is suceeding in solving cats' population problem here and there, also in Japan.
But I know still many people don't trust in the effect of TNR and some people, especially government officials, are still believing that "catch and kill method is the only way to solve all animal problems". It makes me so frastrated and disgusted.

So, my New Year's Oath is, "to persuade government animal control how TNR is effective and they should promote it with volunteer groups strongly"!
