She explains how her relationship with parrots has developed as well as what the process of fostering them looks like. She also emphasizes the leading causes of the stray parrot population, being the extreme noise levels that they produce, which many people struggle with. Similarly, parrots constantly require attention that cannot be ignored.
In episode two of Off the Streets, host Katie Kelly, speaks to Kiyomi Taylor about the TNR process in Japan, providing a global outlook to the issue of stray cat population. She discusses what trap, neuter, and return means which is the most humane way to reduce the number of stray cats in communities.
