They show up as this one did the remaining days of August. Cute little
thing pouncing on bugs in the grass. Unfortunately, they are also a real
problem in this town, with cats fighting in the streets and overpopulation. As a public health hazard, feral cats carry disease and parasites.
I am pro-welfare and believe in spay/neuter and humane methods. This little
Gal/Guy was soon joined by a couple siblings. They hang out in the front of the house, playing and dozing in the sun, hiding in nearby bushes when spooked or during rain.
We have shelters that are full, clinics that can’t take them on, and a true issue with lack of resources when it comes to what to do with cats here. Animal Control WILL NOT TAKE THEM!!! We have to take matters into our own hands and find willing people to pay for alteration/veterinary care who also are dedicated to taking time to tame a feral kitten and rehome them. Sooo, I have purchased a humane trap and bait/check regularly. Amongst the three Black was first to trigger it. I have a couple
Homes lined up willing to take on this new project. Now, to get my trap back and re-bait for the tiger tabby and white-with-hat. More crates, gloves, and supplies await. Huzzah!
