Six Cats Today Plus an Injured Kitten

Today its six easy cats up being fixed, five boys and one unknown.

The unknown is the little black tux kitten from the Eviction Tenants.  I think its a girl but I'm always getting that wrong.  She's been in the foster cage for several days since she was lonely out in the garage.  And she won't be coming back with me.  She'll go to my barn cat placement friend who still has her family members who were fixed last Monday.

Besides her, the other five are for sure boys.  There's one little guy, Fritz, from Sweet Home.  I got four others fixed from there a bit ago.  He's the last.  He's really under weight for his age however and I suspect this is likely due to worms.  Those will leave him today too.  That is one thing I adore about the whs program.  The cats all get droncit shots to kill tapeworms and Revolution, which kills fleas, ear mites AND roundworms.

Two more adult boys are being fixed from Mountain Shadows trailer park in Sweet Home.  Unlike the three boys from there last week, Lark, Shadow and LG, Felix and Little Bit will go home once fixed.  That's five cats from Mountain Shadows in 8 days.

So is Little Bit's brother Felix.

Also being neutered today, Rocky from Brownsville.  He's one of four or five kittens born in someone's barn down there and now in Diana's garage, awaiting homes, but only after they are fixed.

Then there's Button being neutered from Kings Valley.  He too showed up suddenly in a friends barn.

On the way home from dropping the cats at the clinic, I stopped at a Turner residence, allegedly with some 30 cats needing fixed, just to check it out.  They have contacted the FCCO and hopefully we can help them get it done.  CAFA is helping with this colony.  We'll make sure together it gets done.  Very nice older couple, but wearing their age, in bent backs and slow walking, kind of like me. 

Some of the cats are already fixed.

Lastly, a woman had posted about a starving teen torti in Albany she was feeding with a hurt leg.  She had already gotten Meow Village to say they'd take her, but needed help catching her.  Meow Village asked me to help.

I went over once home with a trap, was just going to give it over to the woman to catch the cat herself, but she wasn't up yet.  I then spotted the cat across the street and set the trap.   Unfortunately I set it a few feet off the sidewalk on the driveway of a duplex with lots of trash in same driveway, figuring they would not mind if the cat got helped.  But they did mind and the guy came out and told me the woman living there wanted that "god damned trap" off her property.  Fine.   I caught her on the sidewalk.

Poor little thing.  She will get medical care immediately through Meow Village.

Lastly, while unloading my six cats up at the clinic, I saw a familiar van in front of me.  Vicki and Doris of KATA were there, unloading 12 cats they'd caught in Cascadia.  The old cat trappers club.  Ha!
