Our Cats after Release:
1. Weatherford: It
has been many years since I have been to Jackie’s barn in Weatherford. I put 2 there before but now they have
moved on. I am glad she called me
again. Alex and Carlos will be happy
there.
2. Northlake: This
property is a new purchase for the owners from Missouri. The barn is clean and well-kept with great
fencing around the entire area. Kojack
and Danali were immediately out of their hidey boxes and pacing in the cage….a
good sign…they smell those mice!
3. Sachse: Rusty
was placed there last year in August.
His “friend” took off and he has been lonely ever since. Lucy will keep him company now.
Calls You Don’t Want to Get: Follow-UP: Got
the cats in Ellis County on Tuesday and got them into an adoption group on
Friday. They are really nice cats! Now they will have safe, in-door homes!
Informational: One barn owner is concerned that her cats will get the
same virus that is killing the exotic BIG CATS at the Wylie sanctuary – In-sync
Exotics. Well – that is CANINE DISTEMPER
– not FELINE DISTEMPER. All the cats
from Barn Cats have had an FVRCP shot – that is the preventive for feline distemper. See below from their website:
“Our cats have been
diagnosed with Canine Distemper Virus (CDV), and the diagnosis has been
confirmed with blood tests. This virus can affect canines, but also animals in
the weasel family (including ferrets), raccoons and the Panthera cats (lions,
tigers, leopard and jaguars). We have been told that other felines cannot get
this virus, so our cheetahs, cougars, bobcats, lynx, servals and ocelot should
be safe from infection.” http://www.insyncexotics.com/
OMG: We have put out lots of cats over the last 3
weeks. Now it is time to start picking
up all that equipment after the cats have been released. Most of the relocations have been 1 or 2 –
not 4 or 5 at a time which means there are many, many places to re-visit. THEN – all that dirty equipment has to be
cleaned. We take it to a car wash. THANKS to Jamie for that suggestion several
years ago.
Unusual Mail Boxes: Both of these boxes were on
the same street in Anna, TX. Take a
look…
Thanks for following the
Barn Cats blog. See you next week! Peg
