We implement a collaborative approach in outreach, research, and resource development to make a positive change in our communities. Our goal is to strengthen partnerships and work towards a common goal of protecting cats from outdoors dangers, reducing the number of roaming cats on the streets and reducing the impacts of roaming cats on people and wildlife. Our partnership relies on translational ecology, a tool that helps address One Health issues, such as the free-roaming cats in Canada. Translation ecology allows bridging gaps between research and implementation in animal conservation. The principles of translational ecology allow our group of diverse partners from animal welfare, wildlife conservation, veterinary medicine, research and the governments to find common ground and work collaboratively, satisfying the interests and needs of all participants. \u00a0 Cats and Birds Advisory Committee In 2018, the Stewardship Centre for BC joined the Metro Vancouver Birds Advisory Committee (VBAC), which\u00a0works on bird conservation questions and solutions in the Metro Vancouver area. A year later, the Stewardship Centre began coordinating the Cats and Birds Subcommittee, where members meet virtually every month to reduce the impact of roaming cats on natural ecosystems and wildlife, primarily on birds, while ensuring cat welfare in BC. The Cats and Birds Advisory Subcommittee has representatives from animal welfare, conservation, academia and the government. Stewardship Centre is delighted and thankful for an opportunity to work with its partners on such an important issue.
