Our Cats after Release:   No equipment picked up this week.

Calls/Emails:   Cats at Valley View Mall—UPDATE, AGAIN! 
I have been taking cats from that location for years now.  It is surrounded by apartments so obvious what is going on.  FINALLY demolition is due to start in March.  Hope barn calls pick up before then so I can take more of them.  Would like it to be warmer, too.
UPDATE:  Trapping started last Thursday but nothing was caught.  They will try for 3 next Thursday.  I have a potential location for all of them but weather will need to be more stable.
UPDATE:  Still no one captured.  That location is surrounded by apartments so the cats may be eating in multiple locations.       

BMG:   MUD – MUD – and MORE MUD!
Was getting ready to take 3 cats to Wolfe City (a 2-hour drive each way) when the phone rang.  It was the folks that live on the property and the mud was treacherous on the way to the barn.  They had just lost their previous barn cat who was 16 years old.  That speaks well for the property.  Hopefully it will dry up enough this week before it RAINS AGAIN on Thursday!  

OMG:   Two Older Cats
Received an email to help with 2 cats that are semi-feral.  The owner had passed away.  WELL – they have been totally indoor and are 10 years old!  Nope!  It is not fair to 10-year-old cats to be put in a barn environment.   They would be sitting ducks for any predator.  Cannot help with this one.
