Break Time!

 It's break time from trapping. 

I'm happy to announce!   Last night I was just too brain blitzed to be out there, but I was out there at the trailer park anyhow.   Most of the cats are now fixed, so mainly I tried to keep the fixed cats and owned cats out of the traps, without a lot of luck.  

Then two loose German Shepherd's came along and sprang the traps twice!   When I saw their shadows in the dark near the trap by the canal I thought I was seeing coyotes at first, til I flicked on a flashlight.  No, just two dogs going out for a cat food dinner (escaped their fenced yard).   

I finally came home with only one more kitty, a young fun loving black and white one.  One of the two cats rolling around in the street in my last posts' video.

Today, three are over being fixed at the clinic--Scooter, the little black and white; Fish, a young adult black, and lastly Sprite--a gray tabby young female.

I'm taking Gulag back in a few minutes.   She was not a boy.  In fact, she was already spayed.   Yet another.  One of the ladies even has a name for her.  Wish I'd known but I didn't know, so oh well.

Besides returning Gulag, and picking up the other three later in the afternoon, I have no duties.

Tomorrow, I will drop off another tame owned cat from the park, then head to Salem with two of the cats whom I've been holding for placement.   I'm calling them Jet and Speedo.  They're darling together and now well bonded.  Silverton Cat Rescue barn team has a place for them.

That will leave Beetle, Fish and Scooter here, to place, most likely.   Sprite is wanted back at the park, as she will eventually be taken to Safehaven by a lady who has worked to tame her.

Look how cute these three adult boy buddies are, even though I had to repeatedly suggest they leave the area of the trap, by leaning out of my car or flashing my lights at them.  They are all fixed.  One was fixed last August and two were fixed in the December FCCO trip.   They are always together seems like.   


I haven't even watched the weather on TV lately.  Been too busy.  Just as well.   Seems like people are killing one another at higher rates than ever.   Better to stick with the cats and the cat people.  The dogs too, of course.
