Calls/Emails: Operation Kindness Board - Update
Wednesday
of this next week we have a lunch scheduled.
Really don’t know what possibility could come of this since their
decision to drop the Barn Cat project. I
am working with several other groups to place cats and caging with them. I no longer trust Operation
Kindness…so…update next week. UPDATE: We all agreed
to just let it go. I am working to make
Barn Cats a referral: I match up barn
owners with groups that have cats to place.
If Operation Kindness wants to do some barning it may start AFTER the
building project is completed – probably 2 years out. I am moving on!
BMG: Barn Owners Requests for Cats
Let’s
take a look at these placement numbers for March from 2014 to now:
|
March
|
2014 83
|
2015 71
|
2016 52
|
2017 86
|
2018 84
|
2019 23
|
Other
than the weather, I cannot explain the drop in placements. Of the April relocations, all but 2 have
been repeat customers, too. Maybe the
rats are not running this year…????? I
just do not know how to explain this.
BUMMER!
OMG: Getting Cats Out of My House
I
am no longer taking in cats. I currently
have 8 to place. Cages are being cleaned
and taken down, as well. I will
distribute the caging to groups wanting to do some barning as I give them
referrals. At least “some” feral cats
will continue to be saved…just not at the levels from the last 16 years. This will especially be bad for cats who end
up in municipal kill shelters. So sorry!
Thanks
for following the Barn Cats Blog. Peg
