Got yet another call, this one from outside Lebanon. Some woman, Lana, moved out and left over a dozen cats. Deputies wouldn't do anything, because, they stated, they're not dogs. Landlord and the property management company claim it's not their responsibility their renter created a neighborhood nuisance. While the neighbors love cats, they want them helped and homes found for them, but have no money to contribute.
They are fed up, like everyone else, with lack of responsible behavior, from renters and landlords, in Linn County in regards to animals. There is so much exploitation, irresponsibility and selfishness in this county. Maybe there is everywhere. This crapole really sticks out here, like a sore thumb. No, like a bloody mangled thumb.
So somebody else they had contacted will take all of them in as barn cats if they are fixed. So good on that at least. Yahoo. That will be a good ending.
Another situation on Spicer. I ran into a woman visiting a friend over on highway 20. She and her husband had a female show up who had babies, then a couple toms are around too. Thing is, she said they don't feed them. Can't they all live on mice, she said very innocently. I said I"ll help you only if you start feeding them. She said they would.
Then there's some people feeding some stray outside a rest home. They'll take them back if they're fixed, but I'll have to work them in.
Then there are three more at HTN proper to catch and a couple more at the Slophouse next street over.
Then that Lebanon woman who never followed through, need to still get them fixed anyhow.
Two more to catch at DD. One more at Whitey2, although it's a tame male and they said they'd get him fixed when he shows back up themselves. But for the most part, Whitey2 and the neighbor thing is done, with today's fixing of three, one from Whitey2 proper, then the neighbors two manx females. And I"m glad of it, too.
Then I'd love to help finish that Springfield colony, just because it's far far away from here. Far far away. And a new show at the BS.
And then there's someone else and someone else and they all run together in a blur in the end.
I am a Cat Woman. My self-appointed mission in life is to save the feline world! To accomplish this mission, I get cats fixed. Perhaps my mission might be slightly delusional. This blog is a mishmash of wishful thinking, rants, experiences as I remember them and of course, cat stories and cat photos. I have a nonprofit now, to help keep the cats here cared for and to fix community cats. Happy Cat Club formed in 2015. Currently, we are on a mission to fix 10,000 cats.
