Our Cats after Release:
- Rockwall: Barn Cat (Barbee) is doing well in Rockwall. I took her a flea treatment when I picked up equipment. She taught the dog who is boss!
- Prosper: Jenny is a “killing machine”. The family is very happy and Jenny seems happy, too!
Phone Calls/Emails You Don’t Want to Get:
- Around Corsicana: A retired guy takes in strays. There is no spay/neuter clinic in his area and (you guessed it) he now has many, many cats! He has many kittens -- the SPCA in Dallas said they could help if he would bring them in. I did not say I could take cats but offered to pay for spay/neuter if he can find a low-cost option in Temple, Belton, etc. That would at least stop the breeding. Well – no update and it has been almost a week…???
- Greenville: Last year I took some kittens from a family in Greenville. They had 2 females…one of which they released to Barn Cats but then asked for it back. I did return that cat after the spay was done. I set up a spay for that second female with Cause for Paws “in” Greenville. I never received a call from Cause for Paws to pay for that spay….and….now there are additional kittens. ALSO – she is now calling for me to pick up those kittens – I have not called her back. It will take a lot for me to be nice. All she has to do is TAKE THE CAT FOR THE APPOINTMENT IN THE SAME TOWN!

See above: Here we go again. Folks say “I cannot afford to get them
spayed/neutered” – but REALLY they want someone to rush over there, trap the
cats, take it for sterilization, pay for it – and then deliver it back
home. Well – it does not work that way. If truly they cannot afford it – I understand
– AND Barn Cats will pay for it. BUT –
you have to do the transport. I am over
1 ½ hours away but you cannot drive cross the same town to take that cat!
Thanks for following the Barn Cats blog. See you next week! Peg
