But before they put the cat back out into society, the cat would be spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and micro-chipped. Which helps to ensure a better, healthier life for said cat, (and most importantly, no more baby kitties from that cat anyway!)

SCRAPS currently runs a TNR program for the majority of feral cats which is to say they are Trapped, Neutered (or spayed), and then Released near where they were originally trapped. This is preferred to simply euthanizing the animal from an overpopulation standpoint in that the altered animal will likely continue to live in and defend its territory while being unable to procreate. If the animal is removed from the ecosystem altogether, there is a good chance it would quickly be replaced by a different, feral, unaltered animal and continue the overpopulation issue. There are some cases where SCRAPS may deem an animal unsuitable for TNR such as being too sick to safely have surgery performed on it, but these are all handled on a case by case basis and a blanket answer isn't particularly applicable.

I believe they also have a program that is called (or something like) "Barn Cats". I think they cost less. I have personally looked for cats this way through each of the different kennels around town. Each has something along these lines.

I understand they work with aggressive animals before they put them up for adoption

Ok

It really depends. They could keep it and do some training if it young enough or they will put it out for adoption as farm cats.
