Finishing

So I'm trying to finish up unfinished situations. The Millersburg Road Chaos colony is now all fixed. Tomorrow, the three kittens, now almost five pounds, left of the Scravel Hill colony, will be fixed. I believe that makes about 20 cats fixed there. The other three kittens, adopted by a friend in Corvallis, I hope to take in next week. They are from the same colony. That will finish that.

I don't know if I've trapped all the cats at the Scravel Left Behinds or not. The folks gave me permission to check traps at their place during the day yesterday. I stopped by just when they said they would be home, after work, and waited a short time, thinking they'd be home any moment. Finally I gave up and set a second trap and came home. I did expect to hear from them last night, but I didn't. Nor this morning. No e-mail return so far either. I hope they're ok. I wanted to know if they caught anything last night and to talk about how many cats are left. There may be only the three. Not sure. But if so, I can bring my traps home. I've had another trap out on long term loan in rural Linn. I do have to get that back.

I trapped this cat at the Left Behinds, during the day today. This cat will be fixed tomorrow.
This huge black tux male, from the Scravel left behinds, turned out to be already neutered. He's quite wild, however.
White female, fixed today, from the left behinds, up on Scravel Hill. She's tame.
Gray tux female, 13th cat fixed from 13th street cats. One to go, a black tux, sex unknown. She was fixed yesterday.
Orange tabby tux female kitten, fixed Monday, the last unfixed cat there. 17 cats were fixed from this colony I dubbed the Millersburg Road Chaos colony.

    I am sooo glad Candy has a perfect home - it shows there are perfect homes out there for your so perfect cats and kittens, Jody - unfortunately, it takes time time and more time...
    and now, you've got this tame white cat who wants nothing more than love and food and a home - that little orange tabby kitten is adorable! Is the kitten tame?

  2. Yes, the orange tabby female kitten is tame, and those folks love and care well for all 17 of the cats. Most of the adults are wild. I got them fixed last fall.

  3. You take truly beautiful pictures of your rescue cats. Bless you! Have you thought of creating a book of your adventures and photos? You write very well.
