A neighborhood-based approach to humane, long-term community cat management.
Subject: Request for Permission to Address Community Cat Concerns Through Managed Care
Dear Property Manager / Property Owner,
I am writing as a resident of the community to respectfully request your consideration of a structured, humane approach to addressing the presence of outdoor cats on the property.
Like many shared-living environments, our community has experienced issues related to free-roaming cats, including noise, spraying, and concerns about population growth. I understand these challenges and appreciate the responsibility property management carries in balancing resident satisfaction, safety, and property conditions.
I am attaching information about ColonyKind, a managed care program operated locally by TIPS – TNR in Clark County Inc., which focuses on reducing these issues through proven, long-term population control rather than short-term removal or feeding bans.
This program is not informal feeding and does not require management to assume ownership of the cats. Instead, it provides:
Communities using managed care typically experience fewer complaints over time, improved sanitation, and declining cat populations as sterilization takes effect.
I am requesting permission for TIPS to evaluate whether ColonyKind could be a good fit for our property and to discuss any concerns or requirements you may have. Participation is collaborative and property-specific, and no services would move forward without your approval.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I appreciate your commitment to responsible property management and your willingness to review this option.
Sincerely,

Subject: Request for Permission to Address Community Cat Issues Through a Managed Care Program
Dear Park Management / Property Ownership,
I am writing as a resident of the park to respectfully request your consideration of a structured, long-term approach to managing the outdoor cats currently living within the community.
Mobile home parks face unique challenges when it comes to free-roaming cats. The layout of homes, skirting, sheds, crawl spaces, dumpsters, and shared green areas can unintentionally create shelter that attracts unsterilized cats. When these cats are unmanaged, it can lead to issues such as spraying, fighting, noise, damaged skirting, and ongoing resident concerns.
I understand that park management must consider maintenance costs, resident satisfaction, and property standards. For that reason, I am sharing information about ColonyKind, a managed care program operated locally by TIPS – TNR in Clark County Inc., which is designed specifically to help communities like mobile home parks resolve these issues over time.
ColonyKind is not informal feeding and does not require the park to assume ownership of the cats. The program focuses on:
Communities that use managed care typically see fewer complaints, improved sanitation around common areas, and a gradual decline in cat populations as sterilization takes effect.
I am respectfully requesting permission for TIPS to evaluate whether ColonyKind could be a good fit for our park and to discuss any requirements or concerns you may have. Participation is collaborative, property-specific, and no services would move forward without management approval.
Thank you for your time and for your ongoing efforts to maintain a safe and well-managed community. I appreciate your consideration of this option.
Sincerely,
