Our Cats after Release: 

1.     Cedar Hill:  Jessie, Wylie, and Gracie went to this barn with several llamas.  I picked up equipment on Monday.  One is spending time at a neighbor’s barn (but that is OK with the neighbor) and the other two are hanging out at the original barn.  All is good in Cedar Hill! 

2.     Copper Canyon:  Frostbite, Icicle, and Tigger went to this barn behind a family home.   All are sticking around and one was still in the hidey box…so I left it for them. 

  

Calls/Emails:  Spay/Neuter Clinic Issue

Received a call from a person outside of Dallas/Fort Worth who went to a local clinic to get a marge male cat neutered.  He is feral so not easily handled.  When she picked him up, it said he has been SPAYED – hummmmm – meaning HE was a SHE.  The owner did not know what to do so asked them to check him out – again.  They refused.  She asked to see the vet – they refused.  She took the cat to another vet clinic who offered to check him out but he/she would have to be sedated.  SHE DID NOT DO THAT.  …which she should have so now we would know for sure.  She saw that cat “having intercourse” with a female cat that evening when she let HIM go.  If she had let that other vet sedate the cat, we would know if he/she had been “spayed” or if this is a paperwork mix-up…???  Will let you know if/when I get an update. 

BMG:   Rodents Ate Car Wiring

Received a request to place cats with a lady who had all her car’s wiring eaten by rodents IN HER DRIVEWAY!  Insurance paid for the repairs but said they would have TOTALED the vehicle if they had know the total amound of damage before they started.  It was $16,000!!!!  YIKES!!!!   

OMG:  Mama Kitty UPDATE

Mama Kitty is the black/white feral that had the broken leg in the fall of last year.  After the surgery to remove the leg, she went to live a safe live with a family.  I received a picture of her this week on the family couch.  She is doing very well!
