Speaker 1: Excited to have not one, but two amazing guests joining
Speaker 1: us right now. We have Matt and we have Michelle
Speaker 1: and they are with the Siue Empire t NR coalition
Speaker 1: and thanks for joining us.
Speaker 2: Guys.
Speaker 1: We start ladies first with Michelle. You had a great
Speaker 1: event over the weekend and you guys had cat yoga.
Speaker 1: Is that right?
Speaker 2: It's kitten yoga.
Speaker 1: Kitten yoga. And there's another opportunity for people who missed
Speaker 1: out and talk about a fun thing to do. People
Speaker 1: that missed out on this, there's another one coming up.
Speaker 1: When is the next opportunity to do that?
Speaker 2: The next one is Saturday, May twenty fourth, It's at
Speaker 2: twelve noon at Crunch Fitness. And if you love yoga,
Speaker 2: or even if you don't like yoga but you love cats,
Speaker 2: it's really real fun of it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, kitten yoga. And again I'll throw a link to
Speaker 1: make it easy to find the details on that. But
Speaker 1: I think that that looks like just a lot of fun.
Speaker 1: And Matt, we had a chance to chat not too
Speaker 1: long ago, and there's been some really positive things that
Speaker 1: have happened since the last time we had you on
Speaker 1: the radio. Let's talk about the cool news for Sue
Speaker 1: Empire TNR Coalition.
Speaker 3: Yes, finally, thanks John, Finally, after two years of lobbing
Speaker 3: and whatnot, we actually have ordinance put into place that
Speaker 3: protects TNR. So, in fact, we have very specific ordinance
Speaker 3: for tn R and super balls now, so we are
Speaker 3: able to go out and trap, neuter and return pats
Speaker 3: make a dent in the overpopulation of the cats in
Speaker 3: the area.
Speaker 1: I love that. That's a really cool thing. And this
Speaker 1: is something that you know, I can understand. There are
Speaker 1: people that don't understand everything that maybe you know, if
Speaker 1: you don't understand what's going on, you're going, oh, I
Speaker 1: don't think we should be doing that. But the more
Speaker 1: you learn about it, the more it just makes sense,
Speaker 1: doesn't it.
Speaker 2: Michelle. Yeah, absolutely, It's one of those things who were
Speaker 2: kind of puzzled why it took too long and why
Speaker 2: it wasn't already there.
Speaker 3: But to that point, John, you know, the whole overall
Speaker 3: point of tn R is the reduction of numbers. So
Speaker 3: and that's what really what people need to look at is,
Speaker 3: you know, you can complain about cats and what they do, this,
Speaker 3: that and the other thing, and that's not a T
Speaker 3: and R specific thing. What we're doing is we can
Speaker 3: reduce the number of cats that are out there causing
Speaker 3: these problems. So that's what's cool about this. And that's
Speaker 3: why whether you like you know, if you like cats,
Speaker 3: come volunteer for us. If you hate cats, you should
Speaker 3: be funding us because we're we're trying to dip the population.
Speaker 1: So absolutely well, and again this is a nonprofit in
Speaker 1: Sioux Falls five oh one C three, the Sue Empire
Speaker 1: t n R Coalition, And I don't know the numbers
Speaker 1: for cats, but I we do a thing here called
Speaker 1: It's a fun Fact every day, and I just had
Speaker 1: this fun fact. It said rats, you know, like the
Speaker 1: big mouse thing.
Speaker 3: Rats.
Speaker 1: Rats multiply so quickly that in eighteen months two rats
Speaker 1: can have over a million descendants. Isn't that wild? And
Speaker 1: again I don't think I don't think cats are quite
Speaker 1: as quick. But again it could become a big issue
Speaker 1: in a real big hurry, can it.
Speaker 3: Oh, absolutely, we were. We actually went out and visit
Speaker 3: trapping last night. These people had three straight pats show
Speaker 3: up and I bet there was probably thirty paths there
Speaker 3: that were after trapping. And that happened in a matter
Speaker 3: of eighteen months.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So if somebody maybe knows of some cats in
Speaker 1: their neighborhood and they're going, I don't know what to
Speaker 1: do about this, do they reach out directly to you?
Speaker 1: Is there like somebody with the city they call, What
Speaker 1: is the procedure for someone to kind of hopefully get
Speaker 1: this under control in their area.
Speaker 3: Well, the procedure would be depending on the situation. But
Speaker 3: in order to TNR, we need basically to everything run
Speaker 3: through the suit called Area Humane Society. They are managing this,
Speaker 3: they're administering this. So the first step is you can
Speaker 3: certainly get to it through our website too to talk
Speaker 3: about all the T and R stuff, But you can
Speaker 3: certainly reach out for us to us for the trapping needs.
Speaker 3: But part of the process is you need to reach
Speaker 3: out to the Humane Society. There is a brief, very
Speaker 3: brief Appleic to fill out just so we can keep
Speaker 3: track of all of our T and rcat you know,
Speaker 3: we need to track this program to show the city
Speaker 3: what we're doing here. So so yeah, so you know,
Speaker 3: you can go to our website read about it. You
Speaker 3: can certainly reach out to us for help. But the
Speaker 3: nuts and bolt of it is you do need to
Speaker 3: go to the Humane Inciety's website. They have a bunch
Speaker 3: of t and our information there. Read it all there.
Speaker 3: It's free, self explanatory, but you can always reach out
Speaker 3: to us for information and help.
Speaker 1: You know, absolutely. And the website for Sue Empire T
Speaker 1: and our coalition is Sue EMPIRETNR dot org. And again,
Speaker 1: thank you guys for doing what you do. And the
Speaker 1: kit and yoga looked amazing and again if people would
