Sunday I was so slow getting going after the late night Saturday.
But after cleaning litterboxes, giving KMR to kittens, feeding the ferals in the garage, etc, I hit the road. But, still didn't get down to Pioneer Villa, mainly to go after kittens, until late morning.
After a couple hours, I had only caught one. A little sweetie.
But I kept at it. The fixed calico, one of the two moms caring for this batch, that included the brown tabby boy I'd trapped night before, kept circling, wanting wet food, which I'd give her. I wanted to nap more than anything.
The day wasn't as hot as Saturday but it was hot enough, into mid 80's.
After so long, mid afternoon, I caught one Siamese mix kitten, then, suprisingly, two more. I had thought there were only two Siamese mix kittens.
The little sweetheart.....
I finally left a trap set by the mobile, for a ninth adult after Silverton Cat Rescue told me they'd take the mom of the tiny ones and get her fixed after the kittens were weaned. I had 8 adults for 8 spots but she was one of them. So I could trap another adult. I left a kitten trap set for the remaining two kittens and drove home.
You made tired just reading about your day!
ReplyDeleteWell, I am tired.
DeleteThat's quite a lot of cats over a couple of days. Be pleased with yourself.
ReplyDeleteYes, a lot of cats and there are a lot more there needing caught, fixed, probably other litters of kittens too.
DeleteYou must be exhausted. But well done. Again. You do such good work.
ReplyDeleteYes I am. Last night was tough. stress over whether I'd be able to get them all loaded up this morning, and just pain too, from my back, shoulder, etc.
DeleteThat's quite the haul. You did get all the kittens? It sounds like you did.
ReplyDeleteNo, I didn't. At least two left, a calico and a black and white. I tried to get workers to catch them today, but I don't think anyone has the time, or desire.
DeleteAgain, thanks for what you do--- and thanks for your nice words on my post.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love what you do, also.
DeleteWhat precious little faces. We dote on our grown girls, though, relishing how they change over the years. :D By the way, "Pet Sematary" is an excellent movie except Church (aka Winston Churchill) had an ill fate. It's key to remember its just a movie. lol But if you can and wish to watch, choose the 1989 version. The remake is crap. ~nods~ Be well, my dear.
ReplyDeleteI watched it originally, the 89 version, but haven't in a long time. I can do that, remember its just a movie. Kujo scared me to death way back when, that movie.
DeleteThey are all little sweeties!
ReplyDeleteThey sure are!
