Here are photos of the five cats fixed today.   It went quite smoothly checking them in at the clinic.  Afterwards I met a friend for breakfast in Salem.  I hadn't seen her in quite a long time.  She's got such a sense of humor, cracks me up over and over.   Then I went and picked up 15 traps from the FCCO trap bank lady, for the big endeavor later in the week.   I hadn't seen her in ages either.  We go way way back.  We're talking decades.  Yet to me, she still looks exactly the same.   I don't think I do.

The four younger cats, a mom and three teens, I'll take tomorrow to Silverton Cat Rescue Barn Cat placement team.  They'll all end up together, same barn.   Feeder lady can't afford to keep feeding all these cats.  She told me she's in bad debt, been paying bills on credit cards.  Yikes.   She lost her job awhile back.  She is still trying to find another.  I told her to wait til after her hip replacement and she said she can't, that she needs the money now. I hope she can find one.  That's a rock and hard place to be between.  Placing four, that's four she doesn't have to feed anymore.   Hard times around here, for HCC too, the nonprofit.  Donations way down, need way up.   Gas prices way up.  Food prices way up.  Utilities so high too.  Yuk.

Brutus, who is older and has had it rather brutal.  Skinny and with skin abrasions.  He got convenia (antibiotic) for his skin issues.  Boy does he love wet food.  Lots of it, keep it coming.

Anyhow, barely slept with wild play going down in the bathroom, where four of them were at and Brutus yowling (in love with Gigi) in the garage.

Even the wild ones like their TP fun.
