HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Relocations

Our Cats after Release

Calls/Emails:   Cats in the HEB Parking Lot – Granbury

BMG (Bitch/Moan/Groan):  Electricity Required

OMG (Oh My God):  Playing Catch Up

Relocations:   I placed 7 this week. 

1.     Plano:  Clover and Tommy went to be garage cats in a neighborhood in Plano where there are lots of squirrels and rodents in the alleyways.  Both are from Dallas.  The property owner has a space heater for them…all good!    

2.     Van Alstyne:  Sundance and Bumble went to this horse barn where the owner does rescue.  One of the horses is 28 years old!   WOW!  Horses put off a lot of body heat and keep a barn warm this time of year.    

3.     Cedar Hill:  Casey, Callie, and Blue went to this barn in Cedar Hill.  They were all 3 from Granbury – living in an HEB parking lot.   (see CALLS/EMAILS below)

Our Cats after Release:  ALL STILL AROUND – BUT DID NOT SEE ANYONE! 

1.     Denison:  Bear-Bear and Snoopy went to this workshop.  Both are still there and doing well. 

2.     Pottsboro:  Moon, Buster and Cowan went to this barn/workshop.  Moon (somehow) got out of the cage early…but is still around.  There is a small heater in the area so the “kids” are warmer.  Buster and Cowan are still there, too.  YES! 

Calls/Emails:   Cats in the HEB Parking Lot – Granbury

A rescuer whom I have known for many years is now living in Granbury.  She saw a bunch of cats in the grocery store parking lot.  Some will be TNR’ed and the rest she is bringing them here for relocation.  Got the first 2 on Sunday.  I can take more on Tuesday but not after that.  Clinics will be closed for the holidays so need to get done early in the week.  It is always something!

UPDATE:  3 were captured:  2 on Sunday and one on Tuesday.  All have tested negative, been spayed/neutered and had rabies and distemper shots.  Will place them in January. 

BMG:   Electricity Required

Well, now it is in the 30’s at night and I have to be careful putting the cats in a cold barn.   All have to have electricity so I can put out a heat lamp with them if there is no heater, etc. available. 

OMG:   Playing Catch Up

I have barn waiting so now just trying to connect with people and set a schedule.  On top of this, having “low tire pressure” in the truck so getting 2 new tires on Monday.  It is always something!
