Seeking someone to take over Barn Cats, Inc.:  I would like to officially retire as Executive Director in 2019.  I can retain the fundraising pieces but would like to stop the relocations, equipment pickups, phone calls, and emails…the day-to-day stuff.  I will be available for consultation.  If interested call or email Barn Cats…972-315-2875 info@barncats.org

Relocations

Our Cats after Release

September Closeout

Calls/Emails:  Mississippi Cat

BMG (Bitch/Moan/Groan:  Cats Not Released

OMG (Oh My God):  Relocating Cats without Spay/Neuter

Relocations and In Take:   I placed 13 this week.      

1          Adoption Group (Ingrid)

1          Backyard in McKinney (Rosie)

3          Barn in Duncanville (Little Blackie, Randy, Dolly)

3          Barn in Fort Worth (Annie, Paisley, Dudley)

2          Workshop in Denison (Lupe, Lucy)

3          Garage in Copper Canyon (Callie, Libby, Liza)

Rosie was left without any equipment in McKinney.  The workshop has windows and he will spent the week there getting to know the people.  No equipment was left so there will be no update at 2 or 3 weeks when I would have picked up the stuff. 

Our Cats after Release:    

1.     Copper Canyon:  Ace and Jett went to this large property in Copper Canyon.  Buth have been spotted early in the evening roaming around.  AND – the rodents are gone!  

September Closeout:  I placed 67 in 10 North Texas counties.

Calls/Emails:  Mississippi Cat

Received a call from a Mississippi phone number.  This guy is a truck driver and has a cat that was traveling with him.  The cat was lost when he delivered some tires in Haslet.  I told him to give my number to that business location and they should get with me if the cat is found.  GOOD GRIEF – what next?   

BMG:   Cats Not Released 

Received a text from a location asking when I would be by to pick up the equipment.  We made an appointment and I traveled there.  BUT – they had not released the cats!   OOPS!   So, I left and it will be done this week.     

OMG:  Relocating Cats without Spay/Neuter

Received a call from someone in a small town that wanted me to recommend a location to move cats but is NOT willing to get them sterilized first.  Well, that recommendation is not coming out of my mouth.  Gave the person some recommendations of other folks to call who might take the cats but get them fixed, too.  Just when you thought you had heard of everything!
