Our Cats after Release:    

1.     Waxahachie:  Dwight, Jack, and Amber went to this barn home.  I did not see them but the signs are all there:  used litter box; food missing; etc.  All good!  Folks had built a cat house for them and I left the towels from their carriers for “smells”.    

2.     Hurst:  Tom and Jerry went to this back yard with the 9 foot BIG FOOT!   Both are doing great.  We moved them to another cage with their hidey box and the owners were to let them out after I left.   

 

  

Calls/Emails:  One Got Out!

I placed3 cats in a shed in Sanger (see above).  The family is going out there each day.  WELL – there were only 2 in the shed Saturday morning.  The door was secure…but…looks like one of the cats pushed on a side panel and it slid open about 4 inches – enough for the cat to get out.  I’ll bet Lilly is still around.  Advised the family to put out food and water on top of the picnic table on the patio along with a litter box.  Hope it works!  They also repaired the shed and checked all the other panels.
