In conjunction with the The Humane Society of West Texas, the City of Lubbock Animal Services and the TTU Feral Cat Program to promote a healthier environment for our faculty, staff, students and visitors to campus, the university will begin implementing a safe and humane plan to better control the feral cat population on campus in the coming weeks. With the assistance of these organizations, we will begin relocating the cats to more suitable, safe off-campus locations. While this process will take some time and will not result in the removal of all cats, it will allow the university to bring the number down to a manageable level.
The university is asking for the assistance of the campus community. Currently, the TTU Feral Cat Program has 11 recognized and approved feeding stations throughout campus. All unapproved feeding stations and evidence of feeding in other areas will be removed upon discovery.
