 The Greenhouse in Flower Mound turned out to be a couple I had known many years ago.  We attended the same church. 

In Era, the store manager asked for 5 BIG spayed females.  So, I went to Lewisville Animal Services and got 5 big females from “death row”.  One, Sterling, has worked her way into the office onto the leather sofa and is even SLEEPING WITH THE DOG!

           

              

Sleeping with the 'Enemy'  LOL

Cats after Release: 

1.      McKinney – The 5 we placed there (Sabrina, Puddin, Lucy and Lonnie) are doing well with the llama protecting them. 

2.      Parker – Ion and Izy are going well but are more “elusive”.

3.      Wylie – Ivy and Sugar are going well.  The other two previous placed cats have also been seen recently. 

4.      Rockwall – These 3 are still living in the shed where I placed them.  There is a loft and even a window! 

                   

Calls/EMAILS You Don’t Want to Get:  A local trapper was asked to go through a house to trap in the backyard.  WELL – HOARDER!   The good news is that there are only 3 cats living in that filthy house.  An appointment was made to get the inside cats, but the people never showed up.  YOU CAN ONLY DO SO MUCH if the people will not cooperate!   

BMG:   I said I would take 10 cats from a local Animal Services organization.  BUT – all had to be tested, fixed, and given shots.  WELL – the group did not wait for the volunteer to pick the cats (I needed a group of friendly and feral PLUS no body under 8 months and no white cats).  SO – they picked 10 cats and sent them to the SPCA clinic to get the work done.  HUMMM!  One was a solid white, front declawed cat!  WHAT?  ….and 4 others were too young.  THEN – they did not get the correct paperwork.  It has been over a week and I still do not have rabies certificates for those cats.  WHAT A MESS!   

OMG:  Took in a cat from Lewisville Animal Services “Bella”.  She went in to be spayed BUT needed a neuter – in as Bella and out as Bill.                      

Thanks for following the Barn Cats blog.  See you next week!           Peg
