Reunion. Brothers greet their brother Blizz

I'd trapped five of the kittens the deceased trailer park woman took care of ten days ago. I wasn't going to bring the other four here. I guess I thought somebody else would help out in this situation, maybe the old woman's family. Or neighbors. But nobody would.

With a very cold spell coming up, the night before last, I set out to trap the other four. I tried to enlist help from the old woman's family. They were there, cleaning out the trailer of her stuff.

I asked at least they check the traps, and call me if one was trapped. I also asked that they move the trap with kitten inside or at least out of sight of where the other cats would see it in the trap so trapping the rest would not be prolonged.

I did receive a message sometime between 4:00 p.m. and 6:00 p.m. Friday night, from the daughter, that there was a kitten in the trap. I was gone, arrived home at 6:00 p.m. to find the message.

I went over. The trap was exactly where I'd placed it, not moved out of sight, with a torbi kitten inside, one I'd already gotten fixed.

I determined at that point it was totally useless asking the family to lift a finger. There was a car I did not recognize in the driveway all night. Whether a family member, in from out of town, just parked there, and stayed elsewhere, or maybe was inside the trailer, I don't know. No one answered when I knocked. So, the rest of the night, I crept in and out, checking the traps in the dark and falling snow. I caught all of the kittens by 6:00 a.m. Saturday morning.

Countryside graciously agreed to test all four that very morning, despite being very busy. They even went ahead and neutered the two not yet fixed. So it was a wonderful thing, to have them helping out with this. Tex, a black tux kitten, here ten days now, was overjoyed to see his brother, the Siamese male I have named Blizz.

In the video, I have just brought Blizz in, early Saturday morning, from my car, in the live trap, into the bedroom where the other kittens from the trailer park now reside. Tex, Kimo and Twitter are overjoyed to see him and immediately surround the trap.
