Click post title to go to the story. The black jeep, owned by the father of the man suspected of killing his step mother, has been found in remote Linn County. Yikes. I need to be more careful when out there in the middle of the night. Evil lurks.
The owner of the jeep is presumed dead, probably also killed by his son and the son's girlfriend. Both are in jail in CA, where an officer stopped them after seeing the girl outside the car owned by the missing Oregon 19 year old, found dead out off Mary's Peak of multiple gunshot wounds.
The pair are believed to have killed at least three people, including the man's 69 year old step mother, who was found bound with duct tape and a bloody pillow around her head, sword nearby.
I think the girl out beside the Oregon kids' car, on a California road, was trying to attract their next victim. Instead, she attracted the interest of the CHP and they're both in jail. Thank goodness.
I cannot imagine what Cody Myers family must be going through. A shy but nice young man, on his way to a Newport jazz festival, ends up missing and then is found dead of homicidal violence, dumped like trash along a road.
The two suspects, both with long criminal histories, one with severe drug issues and both with ties to white supremists, should never see the light of day again.
Evil.

Photos of Some of the cats Fixed Yesterday
I messed up and forgot to take photos of some of the cats, before releasing them, including the big Siamese male and the big black male from the Clover Ridge colony.
I also did not take a picture of the owned black long hair male, of the four I took in to be fixed from Albany.
Two black tux girls were fixed, a Siamese male and then the black long hair male, whose photo I forgot to take. These cats were all owned.
They all had severe worm infestations, however, worse than the ferals. I told them about getting them wormer.
This handsome male is the one I caught in the barn, a half block from the main colony, where the preggie black hangs out. He turned out to be already neutered and there are other drift overs living back there she wants to catch and fix.
This is Busted, the latest cat we caught at the old couple's barn. Four this time around, but there is at least one more adult to catch, that female who was nursing the two fat kittens.
The cats below all were fixed from the clover ridge colony, although I didn't take a photo of the two big males, before releasing them, the Siamese and the big black.
Devoted Mom, the brown tabby congenial female who loves to take care of all the kittens, including her multiple litters. This had worn her out severely. Now, she's fixed and got some tender loving care.
Cloudy, one of the many colony kittens. He's a sweet cute boy, fixed yesterday.
This classic torti female was fixed yesterday.
Biscuit, black and white young female fixed yesterday.
Fluffy is a long hair black female. I drop trapped Fluffy and Biscuit together. They hang out and are best friends.
Mommy Dearest, a long hair tabby on white female, fixed yesterday.
This torti tux female also was fixed yesterday.

Another Yard Stray. Fed Up.
Another stray in my yard this morning, looks like an unfixed male. I am truly fed up.
I finally called the police, about two long hair Siamese down the street a ways. Every day they're trying to hunt the field across from the house, where they curl up, on a back deck next to a soggy old dog house.
I don't even know if anyone lives in that house. I don't see one of the cats anymore, but the other was staring vacantly out from the sidewalk in front of the house this morning, when I went to return cats, and again on the sidewalk across busy Marian street trying to hunt the edge of the grass when I drove back by.
The person who answered at the cop shop said they don't do anything to help cats.
I asked if they would at least check on them. I said I didn't know if they were being fed and that there are animal neglect laws. She said she'd run it by a community service officer.
I wonder if the house is empty. I never see anyone there.
Several other people have asked me about those cats, too, like I should know something, if they're ok, or do something if they are not.
I got a message left today by a Lebanon woman. Something about a cat abandoned as a kitten, now injured, chased relentlessly by neighborhood dogs, and can I do something about it. I can't.
I'm one person. One very very tired person who is going back to bed.
I slept nine hours last night. I'm really only behind in sleep for the one night up all night by a couple of hours since I slept so long yesterday also, in my car.
Feels like I could sleep two days straight however. The clean up started last night. I try to clean up immediately. There are filthy cages and carriers to soak, scrub and wash, then put away. There is tons of laundry that must be done. I have to catch up inside with chores.
I had to bury the poor yard stray, clean the bathroom, where she'd been, top to bottom, wash her bedding, soak the heating pad in disinfectant.
This life is not for the lazy, that's for sure.
Starving Girl Has Died
My little starving yard stray died in the night.
She was in bad shape last night, could not stand and her body temperature dropped.
She had left the heating pad. I laid her back on it. She seemed to appreciate that.
Her skin had pulled tight on her body, which made it hard to even give her fluids. She had the feel to the touch last night of a dying cat.
I was so tired, but I stayed up as long as I could with her.
I knew she would not be with us this morning.
Bless her soul.

15 Albany area Cats Fixed Today
Last night and today, just another marathon.
I was back at the colony off Clover Ridge last night, with my drop trap. I'd already taken 7 to be fixed from that colony and helped them round up ten they took up to an FCCO clinic. These are neighbors of the people who caused the problem.
There was a big Siamese male, who, if not fixed, was going to be shot by a neighbor sick of his spray marking. But first, I went after adult females left unfixed. I caught the tabby on white in the afternoon, with the drop trap, unceremoniously. She never knew what hit her. She'd recently brought out her kittens, who look, from a distance, big enough to be fixed. I caught none of them, however. I had limited reservations and wanted to fill those with big cats. Who could reproduce and spray mark and fight.
I grabbed the kittens one by one, however, and weighed them. Many are on the verge of being weight grade for fixing. I chose to take one little white guy down. A keeper. I stuck him in a carrier. I also wormed the other kittens. There are several black ones, a couple of black tuxes, a torti, an all gray, a couple of tabbies, one of whom was fixed last time. The orange one disappeared. The man is trying to find some group to take them, before they're killed on the road. They cross it back and forth between the two houses. They're full of personality and most are very tame.
I left briefly. The old couple still was trapping south of Albany. However, he didn't realize or remember I have gotten, in years past 14 other cats fixed there. He thought they had all disappeared and all these new ones had showed up. In reality, they're the old ones, all ear tipped and happy and fat. He can't see the ear tips is all.
But there is still that black and white female with the two fat kittens out there, to be caught. We only caught the one cat there, in two days of trapping, that didn't have an ear tip, not counting the three others done last week, that is.
He wouldn't listen to me on the trapping either.
Then I picked up four tame cats, and that's when I got into it with that landlord.
After all this, I had a male kitten and an adult female, from the Clover ridge colony, the black and white male from the old couple, and the four tame cats, two of each sex. I then settled in for the long haul, out at the Clover Ridge colony, with my drop trap.
They got Devoted Mom caught themselves and put into a carrier. She's had a dozen litters probably and still is devoted to caring for each and even other mother's rejected kittens despite being worn out inside, from this endeavor, with a chronic cold, and worms and diarrhea from worms and malnutrition.
I drop trapped two torti's then, one at a time. The weather had turned. It was raining off and on and my car would fog up and it was hard to see with fogged up binoculars through a fogged up windshield in the dark if the cat under the drop trap was fixed or not fixed.
I knew there was a black male out there, and had to judge by his walk, it was him, not one of the many black females, some fixed, some not, and yank the cord, dropping the trap.
I lucked out at 11:30 p.m., when two of the final three females, waltzed under the trap together. I yanked the cord. Boom. Wasn't easy by this time, getting them into traps. I had no more transfer traps. I would have to lay one-door traps on their side, open end protruding beyond the corner of the transfer door on the drop trap. This makes me nervous, when I'm tired.
Once I raise the wooden transfer door on the drop trap, with it still entirely covered while also holding it down, I then must simultaneously pull the trap front away from the drop trap, with the cat in it now, and flip it up right so the door snaps down and the lever drops that keeps the cat from being able to hit the door and slam it open and get out.
Got those two contained. Figured maybe I should give it up, since I had to be on the road by 4:30 a.m. But then I saw the Siamese, out of the corner of my eye, like a ghost shadow against the black gravel. I waited it out.
It took awhile. He flirted around the perimeter. Then suddenly about 1:15 in the morning, this morning, he walked by my car and directly under the drop trap, where I had tuna in the plate. I shook myself semi alert and yanked the cord.
That was one angry Siamese. He hissed and struck at me through the netting of the drop trap as I got it covered and bolted against it. It was rock n roll. I got him into a trap.
I did the victory dance. I couldn't help it. I was dancing around in the dark in that driveway, with a flashlight in one hand, the cat at my feet in the trap. "Gotcha, buddy," I gloated. "Hey," I admonished, when he hissed, "Shit happens and tonight, shit happened to you. But it's good shit. Yes indeed."
I still had a trap set at a nearby barn. She had tom cats there, drift overs from this colony. Also, tragically, I'd seen a very very pregnant black cat waddle up the fence line from that direction, take one look at my car, turn around and waddle back down the fence line. I asked the colony caretaker about her. She said, "We see her in the field, behind the barn down there."
So, I told the barn owner, already concerned about the toms in her barn, about the preggie. She wasn't happy, but her daughter saw her that afternoon in the barn. We didn't catch her. I left a trap set.
I told the old couple to leave my traps set over night there too, that I'd check them on the way out of town.
I never got to bed last night.
I got a very upsetting call. The woman in Corvallis who adopted the two Siamese from the very old Lebanon woman colony, a few weeks back, never tamed them and now doesn't want them. I was horrified, because I can't keep them here, having too many, getting no adoptions, and now, they're probably too old to tame. I told her I could not take them back for two days and that the only option for them at this point is to return to the colony, which is a very very crappy option.
I couldn't sleep after that call.
Couldn't stop thinking about it.
So I went into the bathroom and held the old holocaust girl, who is so skinny it's hard to hold her. She seems like she'll break if I pick her up. She is eating and drinking on her own but is very very tired and I don't know if she has some underlying problem or if she is incredibly run down from starvation.
Because she recovered so quickly from dehydration and low body temp, I tend to think she went long term without food. Her left front leg may have been broken. It's thick and slightly crooked. This may have prevented her from getting to food and water for too long. I don't know.
Off I headed, at 4:00 a.m. But first, I had to check the trap I left set in the barn. In it, I found a mostly white male, dark tabby ears and tail. The woman came and said "That's one of them." So I loaded him in, although it was hard to fit another big trap in the car. The old couple had all my small traps and I knew I wasted them there, but I like them. He doesn't set traps well. I'd find them in a line, without bait, in fact.
Off then to check the traps in the old couple barn. I warned him, jokingly, now don't shoot me if when a car enters your driveway at 4:00 in the morning. "I can't shoot you?" he says, with a grin. "No," I said.
On the way, already, Devoted Mom has had an incident. She was meowing to beat the band, in the carrier, unfortunately, located just to the right and behind my head. Then I hear this farting sound, then a horrible terrible smell fills the air. AHHHHHHH!!! She's had a major diarrhea event four inches from the back of my head.
It's dark. I'm running late. The traps at the old couple barn are empty. I grab one and in the dark, wrestle with it and the diarrhea carrier and the fairly happy diarrhea cat, now purring. I get her into the trap. I plop the smelly awful carrier on the ground by the old couples' garden.
I'm leaving it there.
As a last thought, I scribble a note on a bait plate, that says, "Will be back for this later." I lay it atop the carrier and pick up a rock and put it on the note so it won't blow away. Then I head out.
The trip down always seems longer than the trip back. I got down there on time. I unloaded the cats, cleaned out the back of my car, spread out a blanket back there, wrapped myself in another and conked out for six hours.
More later. Bottom line: 15 more Albany area cats got fixed today and, despite the marathon, I loved every minute of it. I'll be a bitch from exhaustion the next few days. You better believe I will. Stay away. You've been warned!

Dive with a View of the Railroad Tracks
I got into it tonight. With a landlord, no less. I didn't know he was a landlord. I thought he was just some nosy guy.
I was trying to find the place where some people live who need four cats fixed. Turned out, I went to the other unit, and they lived down below.
Their residence is a dive with a view of the railroad tracks. Their neighbors are a seedy bar and a sewage treatment plant.
The landlord wanted to know if I was here for the cats. Apparently he thought I was taking them away.
When I finally found the tenants on the down side unit, he followed me, and began asking if they were getting rid of them finally. They looked at one another and one said "They're getting fixed and then going to a foster group." The landlord looks at me and says, "Are you the foster group?"
He knew I wasn't. He knew they were getting them fixed. He was embarrassing them in front of me and putting them on the spot and then giving them hell about having something they love and he told them to get rid of three of them, that they can't come back. It didn't set with me.
He told his tenants, "How many are on your lease?" "Two," the women said, sorrowfully, humbly, worried about her cats, because she loves them. It broke my heart to see him grill her that way, knowing she loves them, knowing he knows she loves them. He then said, "I think cats would be better off all euthanized."
I lit into him probably more than I should have and maybe less than I should have.
He told them the new tenant moving in above has cats and wants a dog, and if they have four cats, the area will be over run.
THE AREA!
The area contains a seedy bar and a sewage treatment plant.
Mr. Landlord:
Your two units are dives with a view of the railroad tracks.
Let them have a little something to love. They probably need it badly there.

Missng Teen and a Pair of Ruthless Killers
Update: Oh god. They found the body of a young man near Corvallis. It's probably this young man.
This killer couple need found and stopped!
The story of the missing teen, a 19 year old, who left Lafayette Saturday to travel to the Newport Jazz festival, rips my heart out.
He's missing, you see. Click post title to go to the story.
His cell stopped receiving messages that same day, on Saturday.
Later, his car was seen driving erratically on the interstate, just north of Albany. Police responded but didn't locate the car.
Later still, two people pulled into a Salem convenience store, in Cody Myers car, and tried to make purchases using a stolen credit card.
This attempt led to the identification of the couple in Cody's car--a man and his girlfriend on the run as prime suspects in the brutal slaying of the man's elderly stepmother. She lived in a WA trailer park and was found with hands duct taped, a bloody pillow around her head, and a sword laying nearby.
The 31 year old male suspect was seen leaving the house of his father in his father's black jeep, with his father, who is considered endangered and I bet he's dead too.
The pair, the felon and his felon girlfriend, probably felt they needed to dump the hot car and ran into Cody somewhere somehow, on his way to Newport. Now they're driving his car and Cody is nowhere to be found.
Where is Cody Myers? Some of the photos of the frantic worry on his mother's face get to me. I wonder why the whole state doesn't shut down to find this boy.
That pair of murderers, they'll get what is coming to them. They chose the dark path and the dark path leads only one place.
Meanwhile, that nice kid, Cody, where is he? Is he alive out there somewhere in the Oregon woods, bound and injured, unable to get to help? Or did that pair ruthlessly take his life?
Be on the watch, for the felons in his car and for the missing black jeep. Maybe we find the black jeep and the state of Oregon, and all its people, it's family, find Cody.
They don't know what route Cody took to the coast. He could have taken the highway out of Salem, then traveled south on 101 to Newport. Or maybe he came down 99 to Corvallis and went over through Philomath.
Whichever way he took, if those felons in his car were on the interstate just north of Albany, they had to have come back through Philomath and Corvallis. Maybe Cody is somewhere between Newport and Albany. However, Jazz Festival organizers do not believe he made it to the festival.
Where would someone carjack a young man and how? In a crowded parking lot? Faking it along the road, with the girl pretending to be in trouble, and when a nice young man stops to help, the guy jumps out of the brush? Do they pretend to be out of gas, and he gives them a ride? If so, the jeep would have been found. I don't know. It's driving me nuts though. Young people should not go through such horrors. Not on the way to a Jazz Festival. The photos of Cody remind me of my nephew.
Watch for these vehicles:
black 2010 Jeep Patriot. Washington license ABZ 7996
999 Plymouth Breeze, Oregon license 025 CCH,
Here's what a 2010 jeep patriot looks like:
Here is what a white plymouth Breeze looks like:

The 31 year old male suspect was seen leaving the house of his father in his father's black jeep, with his father, who is considered endangered and I bet he's dead too.
The pair, the felon and his felon girlfriend, probably felt they needed to dump the hot car and ran into Cody somewhere somehow, on his way to Newport. Now they're driving his car and Cody is nowhere to be found.
Where is Cody Myers? Some of the photos of the frantic worry on his mother's face get to me. I wonder why the whole state doesn't shut down to find this boy.
That pair of murderers, they'll get what is coming to them. They chose the dark path and the dark path leads only one place.
Meanwhile, that nice kid, Cody, where is he? Is he alive out there somewhere in the Oregon woods, bound and injured, unable to get to help? Or did that pair ruthlessly take his life?
Be on the watch, for the felons in his car and for the missing black jeep. Maybe we find the black jeep and the state of Oregon, and all its people, it's family, find Cody.
They don't know what route Cody took to the coast. He could have taken the highway out of Salem, then traveled south on 101 to Newport. Or maybe he came down 99 to Corvallis and went over through Philomath.
Whichever way he took, if those felons in his car were on the interstate just north of Albany, they had to have come back through Philomath and Corvallis. Maybe Cody is somewhere between Newport and Albany. However, Jazz Festival organizers do not believe he made it to the festival.
Where would someone carjack a young man and how? In a crowded parking lot? Faking it along the road, with the girl pretending to be in trouble, and when a nice young man stops to help, the guy jumps out of the brush? Do they pretend to be out of gas, and he gives them a ride? If so, the jeep would have been found. I don't know. It's driving me nuts though. Young people should not go through such horrors. Not on the way to a Jazz Festival. The photos of Cody remind me of my nephew.
Watch for these vehicles:

A Skinny Starved Stray Stumbles into My Yard
I was about to leave, to deliver traps somewhere, and I go out my back door. There hunkered down, skinny and starved and cold and tired, is a brown tabby female. I give her a plate of food, not sure if she is tame or isn't tame.
I could not believe it. I went back in to get a trap, but by that time, she was over between my place and my neighbors' hunkered freezing under my dryer vent.
I picked her up and brought her into my bathroom. I gave her warm sub cu fluids, warm wet food and stuck a heating pad in a carrier under a nice fuzzy blanket. She is relieved to be safe.
I've never seen this cat before. She is spayed. I can feel her spay scar.
However, sure looks like my neighbors cat, one she took to Heartland last weekend to be euthanized, due to chronic iritible bowel. It can't be, I'm sure. That would be one long hike for a cat.
But where'd this one come from? She is in sorry shape.
It was a miracle she found me. It's now pouring down rain.
She had no strength and could barely move. She'd be out there, dying in the rain. Instead she is on a heating pad, getting held and petted when she wants it, warm fluids, food.
If she dies, she'll die in the arms of love. Not out under a bush alone in the dark and freezing rain.
I think she's in kidney failure.
Bless the Dumped Cats
Bless those poor dumped cats. If they are even alive.
I went looking for them tonight. I got fed up though. See I saw a black cat, where somebody doesn't have cats, because I've met him. He was taking refuge on an enclosed porch. I went up there and the cat was going to come to me, then went under the steps.
The man wasn't home or didn't answer my knocks.
So I call the lady with the lost black cat, that was dumped, allegedly over near there, and say, "Come look at this cat. I have no idea if it is yours or not, but maybe it is. It's the right area and this guy doesn't have one."
She takes down the address. I figure she or a family member will be right over. Nothing. I wait ten minutes. Then 15. Then twenty. Then 30. I think "Well, maybe she's at work, but the gas station woman said some guy was just there, a few minutes before I was, and gave her a flier. That was like ten minutes before I first saw the cat, then called.
After 45 minutes waiting, I left. I was thinking, "What is going on?"
There's no way for anybody looking other than them to tell one black cat from another. Has to be them come check to see if its their since there are so many black cats.
I thought that was a likely hit on the missing cat, being near the area and where I saw him, hunkered down, somewhere out of the weather like that, and then they didn't come. I was let down and left wondering. Maybe they were seriously tied up. I don't know.
I would never take the word of an animal abuser, on what he or she actually did with or to the cats. They're unreliable by nature of being assholes intent on serving their own interests at the expense of harming anything in their way. I would be more apt to think someone's lying when they say they dumped them in one place, to cover tracks on what they really did to those poor cats. His garbage can probably holds the real truth.
See there's construction on the main highway just across the bridge and has been. I don't think he went over there with cats.
Bless those dumped cats, if they're even alive. And the opposite for that asshole who hurt them like that.

On KEZI News--Albany Man, on Hill St., Trapping, Dumping Neighbors Cats
Terrible story out of Albany and unfortunately, I know some of the cats who have disappeared. I got them fixed. Click the post title to go to the KEZI story.
A man admitted only to trapping three neighbors cats, a black super friendly neutered six year old male named Easy and two other cats owned by another man on the block.
However, at least five, maybe six of the seven strays I trapped nearby, are now missing, too. Makes me mad as hell.
He claims he dumped them behind Ray's Market. But do you really believe a cat dumper? I don't.
I told the woman with the super friendly black male to check with Heartland. She had not done so, forgetting that part of Albany is Benton County so people there can take unwanted cats or strays to Heartland.
The police at first refused to get involved. That's why she called the news, she said.
She said that man sat at her table for dinner and told her that he was trapping cats and she said she would pay for cat deterrents like the motion sensor electronic sound one, or the motion sensor sprinkler and even scoop up poop and she warned him against trapping her cats, pointing out hers. Then her cat disappeared and he was best buddy with her son's dog. Her son finally got the man to confess that he took her cat away too, she said, although that wasn't on the news.
All three cats he claimed to have dumped were fixed. So were those strays, who are gone, too, and likely dumped or killed by him.
Makes me sick.
Here are photos of four of the seven strays I trapped there to be fixed. The kitten I trapped was tamed, after he was fixed, and adopted out. His mom, a brown tabby short hair, hopefully is not one of the missing. Besides the mom and kitten, I trapped five males. Not shown, in photos below, an orange male. Two of the males were brothers, a long hair tabby on white and a short hair tabby on white. A neighbor kicked them outside when they spray marked and never got them fixed. The black male is also very tame. ODB, Old Dirty Bastard, the big white male, is for sure missing. I believe the others are also but not sure about Momma cat or the tame black stray male.

Amanda Knox Freed! Amazed, Impressed With Italian System
I can't believe they reversed it. That would not happen in America. Bull headed prosecutors and juries who side with bull headed prosecutors and tunnel vision cops prevent it, even in the face of enormous evidence of innocence.
That they could reverse an obviously bad verdict, I am impressed. And shocked. Guess I'm tainted by trials here.
Those three kids, ramrodded as teens, as perps in the death of three little boys, finally freed in the face of unbelievable evidence of their innocence, decades later, but only if they pled guilty to something. So they walk free with convictions for child murder on their record, even though they are innocent.
The town in that case was convinced the three teens were devil worshipers, and must have done it because of that alone, because of how they dressed, but they weren't. They were just rebellious teens. That was enough to get them railroaded. Cops who push kids or anybody in 24 hour endurance interrogations need to understand the basics of human behavior, but they don't care.
Why here, is our justice system so unwilling to be just absolutely bullheaded in determining guilt or innocence. If someone in jail is innocent and there are ways that might be proved, for gosh sakes let the evidence be heard in unbiased deliberate fashion.

Uh Oh
Found this on craigslist. Looks like the clinic I use is seeking a new or another veterinarian, not sure which. If you know any good surgeon vets looking for work, point them to the ad. Thursday is the day I was supposed to take more cats down.....see post below.
Seeking PT Veterinarian for established Spay and Neuter clinic (Coos Bay)
Date: 2011-10-02, 2:56PM PDT
Reply to: comm-3kahv-2629065305@craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?]
S/Nipped is looking for a PT, Spay and Neuter surgeon. Salary $60,000 to start with 4 weeks unaccrued paid time off a year. Training available. Our current surgeon performs 20 spays and neuters by 2 pm, relief surgeon by 11am so the quicker you are the less hours you work for the same salary. Job is advertised with more specifics on the Veterinary Career Network. http://jobs.avma.org/jobs#/detail/4517107 or please feel free to send your resume and letter of interest to snippedandspayed @ aol.com. Put those together ;).
I also have a day of relief available this week on Thursday. If interested please use the same email address above to contact me.
Thank you....
Ok, here's my take on Amanda Knox and her boyfriend: not guilty. I think they're idiots, but I don't think either one of them killed that poor girl. Will the appeals court agree with me?
I have come to the conclusion justice is rarely served in complicated cases or grisly murders. Emotional needs of victims families, and even of jurors and communities are met sometimes at the expense of an innocent party. I won't even mention the tunnel vision police and win at all cost prosecutors who spit at justice and don't even recognize the word as part of the game. Is Amanda Knox an idiot? Yes. Doing cartwheels in the cop station right after arrest? Well, she was high on drugs, pot, that is, that morning and so was her boyfriend. How many murders get committed while high on pot? How many twinkies get eaten, by comparison, say?
Casey Anthony? Guilty as sin. Jury got it wrong. Or right. Prosecutors and cops did a lousy LOUSY job on the case. A jury doing their job could not convict her on the prosecutors lousy ass case. They were right not to. Prosecutor and cops involved should lose their jobs. But she's guilty for sure. I don't need any jury verdict to tell me that.
There's a new cop show on TV. Star is a tough woman detective. Why can't I think of the show's name. I've watched it twice. What it does very very well is show case the testosterone driven (rife with mistakes) tunnel vision rampant in police investigations. I love the show. It's hysterical, on some levels.

Sage in her new Home. Cooper and Brody updates, too.
Sage, in her new home. Her new human reports she is adjusting just fine.
Cooper, formerly of the VV colony, then taken in by Heartland, then they asked me to come get him, then adopted by a Corvallis woman, is doing great!
Brody, formerly Brutus, born in a boat behind an Albany house, whose owner was recently murdered by his own tenant. He was adopted by a Corvallis woman a year ago and isn't he gorgeous and wonderful!
Been watching a show on Mexican drug violence. It's almost incomprehensible the extent of the brutality and inhumanity.
It's hard to know how to think about it. The drug market is here, in America. Americans feed the violence of drug cartels when Americans purchase drugs on the street. American guns are smuggled into Mexico and used in the murders, not just of rival gang members but of those who cannot be extorted or for examples or threats, when people are murdered and beheaded to make a point.
Are we to blame, because American drug addicts are the market that create this violence and because American guns are sold to cartel members and smuggled across the border?
How can this violence be stopped? Would American addicts try harder to quit if they knew their purchase of drugs is really an accessory to torture and murder? Would arms sellers be more careful who they sell guns to?
Money. Greed. Addictions. Drugs. Guns. Murder.
We are intricately tied to Mexican drug violence.
Kitty's Gone Green Cat Litter Gets Article in Spot Magazine
Milwaukie Kathy's Kitty's Gone Green cat litter got a write up in SPOT magazine. Click the post title to read it.
Kathy took in the three kittens born in the trap. Mini had the flat chest syndrome and died within a week or two of leaving here. I don't know if she still has the two sisters. I believe she found a home for them.
Anyhow, Keni, Poppa's president, also gets a mention in the article. It's a good product. She gave me a bag once and it was really great.
I hope she makes it big. She deserves it.

Free to good home. Male cat neutered, 10 years old, goes indoor and outdoor. Does not claw furniture but he has been allowed to sit on furniture. Would be best in a home without dogs or small children. Children over the age of 8 would be fine. Have litter box (he prefers to go outside) and a cat carrier. We are moving out of state and just can't take him with us.

Free to good home. Male cat neutered, 10 years old, goes indoor and outdoor. Does not claw furniture but he has been allowed to sit on furniture. Would be best in a home without dogs or small children. Children over the age of 8 would be fine. Have litter box (he prefers to go outside) and a cat carrier. We are moving out of state and just can't take him with us.

I have an older cat around 13 years old and would make a great companion for an older person. Loves attention but doesn't play much anymore. Has more years left in him. I'm moving to an apartment and need to find him a new home. He has been fixed. Email for photos and/or details.
And another person moving, to somewhere that doesn't allow pets, and wanting to leave him with somebody else. These poor cats have no idea what's about to happen to them and these people, there are places that allow pets, why don't they find them?

I have 4 playful kittens that would love to be your companion. They have been handled and played with since a young age, so they are very social. I have also gotten the litter box trained. They are now 8 weeks old and the mother has pretty well gotten them weaned.

12-weeks-old, multi-colored, sweet, socialized kittens. Mama also available, she is a great mouser. All would make great barn cats. 541-231-8702
This is my favorite. A hybrid calico was found. Do you feed her only if she needs to go long distance and otherwise plug her in?

Found a very friendly kitten. Its looks to be a cat that's mixed with some type of wild cat. Strange but cool traits. Call to identify.
Goodbye Sage
Sage was originally abandoned in Lebanon with her four teen boy kittens. They were brought to me by neighbors, in two carriers. The people had them in there awhile, with no litter boxes. To clean them up, they hosed them down from outside the carrier. Sage was dripping wet, alive in fleas, and standing in two inches of feces floating water, when I met her. There wsa no way I'd take them back there. I sobbed to see this mother like that. What she had been through!
Sage, with Dickens, one of her boys. Dickens was taken in by the Silverton cat ladies and adopted out from there.
Dickens was the only kitten of the four boys who was not black.
Smolder was one of her boys and is still here, waiting.
Shaggy, another of her boys, got a home in Corvallis.
Simba died of a congenital heart problem.
Dickens follows Sage, his mother.
Sage went to a great home today with a very accomplished young woman. She came with an equally brilliant friend. I had checked her reference already and it was glowing.
I had accessed a video on another cat, to show the friend, and later offered to e-mail her the web address. She replied, "No, I memorized the address." My mouth dropped open. She'd seen the site from a distance for only a moment. I then commented, "You two, have, by your presence, upped the average IQ of Albany by many percentiles."
These are bright young women and it's like a ray of sunshine to meet people of great intelligence.
Sage has a great chance for a long happy life in this home. We will miss you here, Sage.
By contrast, I've had several other adoption interests with people who almost scare me, or who refuse to fill out the adoption contract or who lie on it. Most are students wanting a cat, lonely, haven't thought it through, want one even though their landlord doesn't allow pets.
I caught a cold, been sneezy, tired, grumpy. Slept away most of yesterday and plan to do the same today and try to kick this cold out before it becomes nasty.
I am so happy for Sage. I love her dearly, but getting a great home means she'll get the attention and vet care she deserves.
And here, more pictures, of the delightful kitties here. Cats love it here, they love all the love and acceptance they get here, the fun, the drama, the nooks and crannies where they can sleep. It is tough on them to leave!
The Family! Slurpy, Miss Daisy, Pebbles and Rumby.
Slurpy, who was briefly in Silverton, gives Rumby a bath. She has taken over the job of mother hen.
Rumby especially has thrived in the abundant love and acceptance here.
Pebbles is angelic when sleeping.
The kittens are also drawn to Miss Daisy. Rumby is no exception.
Slurpy loves Rumby.
Mother Hen Slurpy gives Pebbles a bath.
Calamity, a drama queen muted torti, originally from Lyons street, born to an abandoned mother.I will miss Sage terribly. She is a wonderful wonderful cat who went through a lot in her short life. I was waiting for just the right home, someone who would respect her and love her and I think she got that home today. But I will miss her. We all will here.
