Hi. I was wondering if anyone has ever caught a cat using a net of some sort. We have caught and rescued several cats however this one in particular is just not having it. We have been feeding him since around March of 2014. When I first saw Caesar I was shocked and heartbroken. He looked really really bad, had fur missing and was limping. He looked like he could barely move(except when we tried catching him) and was behind a bush but would get really aggressive if we got too close. We fed him daily and gave up trying to catch him,figuring we would just try and do what we could to make him comfortable and we didn't expect him to pull through.We made numerous attempts at catching him but had no luck . As the weeks went by he got stronger and his fur grew back all except a small patch by his ear. We've caught other cats there with traps and also by picking them up. Caesar has never let us touch him and I fear someone hurt him in an awful way or he got injured and his owner dumped him there knowing we feed there(the whole neighborhood knows this) or he was tossed outside when they saw his condition and he found his way there. His health started declining a couple of weeks ago and he has what appears to be an abscess on his face. We have cried many tears over him and I have vowed to do my best to catch him and take him to the vet.I think he was once an indoor pet and I don't want him to pass away on the streets. I would like to help him. I will be devastated if I do catch him and the vet says the time has come but I promised myself(and Caesar) that I will do what's right. I would like to have him cremated and keep his ashes. Caesar has been through alot and deserves to pass with someone by his side
but I'm going to keep going back through the night. It's only a few blocks away. I will have to get a drop trap or net today too. Right now I'm waiting on my friend to come pick up the mom a cat and her babies to take them to their foster home. Yeay they will be together and they will be the only pets there.
