Tomorrow I am buying a trap and setting it! My first catch will be Lilly, a little calico kitten. You know what the great thing about it is? My dad wants to keep her! He asked me to trap her and let her live inside with my other two kitties! Looks like my dad just kickstarted my TNR! After Lilly is caught, I will take her in to be spayed, vaccinated, tested, dewormed and get flea treatment. I think she is around 5 months old, give or take a month.
Then the other 11 (or more) kitties will be trapped, altered and fostered, homed or returned. My mom is willing to provide most of the funds, and friends are already wanting to help me out. Me and my sister are going to be trapping the kitties. I am going to my vet tomorrow to see if we can work something out. A friend of mine owns a local shelter and said she worked something out with the same vet. He fixes the cats, vaccinates them and tests them for $20.00 a cat! She said if I EVER had any ferals to call her and she'll get them done for me. I would be paying $20.00 per cat, I can't pass that up.
Also, I read on the Alley Cat Allies website that if you trap an unsterilized cat and release it, it will never return?
Send me HUGE vibes for tomorrow night! I hope everything goes well!
P.S
I will update you tomorrow after I get my trap and set it!
