I was cooking supper. Walked out & fed the outside kitties. Had Fafeena, Sandy, & Cow in the garage. That leaves 6, plus Jasper a feral for supper. 11 cats showed up.
I got Floofy fixed, but that's it...thats as far as I can stretch my budget.
I swear, every time I get one fixed, more show up! I mean, I can take them to the HS with me, but I feel so bad. Right now, we're low capacity & kitten season hasn't hit yet*knocks on wood*. But, soon we're gonna get so full...last summer was the first time in 4 years we've had to euth for overpopulation. If I bring these guys in....& we get full.
I can't afford to get them vetted, so I will have to start catching them to take to the HS. Unfortunately...if they are feral, once we start getting full...they will be euthanized.
Does this ever end? When will strays & ferals stop showing up? Does anybody else feel like this is a lost cause?
