Stand by


Stand by for an update of a the adventures of a "trainee" stray cat catcher.....ie me.

Had a phone call from a man who works in a factory they have a cat who took up residence last year she has been fed by the men/women and had kittens last year not sure how many but two kittens about 6-7 months old with Mom still, now she has a litter of kittens....aged he guesses 3-4 weeks...but moving running around but really small, eating from the dishes they put out.
So I am off to hopefuly have a look tomorrow/Thursday....he can keep the Mom cat and the two older kits as they are semi feral/wild but the factory owner is happy for them to stay but not multiply so they will have them back when spayed/neutured but hopefuly rehome the kittens....if young enough.....to "turn around"

So wish me luck my first attempt at proper "cat welfare work" outside of office work...ie neuturing vouchers.
