Local woman creates initiative to help fix overpopulation of cats

Cat Trap Fever is one woman’s initiative to fix the overpopulation of cats in neighborhoods across the Tampa Bay area. Jessica Kelly loves cats but wants to see less of them in bad situations, especially since many are not spayed or neutered. ABC Action News followed Kelly through a Tampa Heights neighborhood, where she immediately spotted several feral cats and people who were feeding them with possibly no intention of trapping and getting them fixed. Kelly drops her business card when she can’t speak to people directly, letting them know her organization can help. She will trap the cats, take them to the vet, and, after an appropriate amount of time, return them to the same location.
