Do you ever have that doozy feral cat that seems to avoid bring trapped? Well, meet "Cheeks" from my colony. Sometimes changing the trap location such as hiding among landscape, shrubbery, etc. helps as does switching baits to something like rotisserie chicken, catnip, tuna, fish pate', sardines or even a McDonalds greasy, plain McChicken sandwich! You can also zip tie the trap door open with food inside. This allows the feral to go in/out without being trapped until you are finally ready and then can clip the zip tie and do the trapping. Drop traps are also an excellent option. Withholding food will also increase the chances for trapping success. These are just a few tips!

Those of us who are colony caretakers and drive to various locations know all too well how the cats recognize us daily as well as hear our approaching vehicles and know the time of the feeding schedule.

Please be sure your outside cats are warm for winter! I make the shelter openings the diameter of a cereal bowl and make them toward the end side of the shelter instead of the middle. Be sure holes are quite high to prevent snowdrifts from getting inside or blocking the entrance hole. Remember to pack with straw and not hay or blankets! Straw will get tamped down over time so keep a reserve on hand to replenish the shelter(s) so the cats can burrow down to keep extra warm. Thanks!

Tomorrow is the vaccine clinic. A high attendance is expected. Please be patient, kind and courteous to those helping put on this event and to other attendees. Many people are giving up family time and volunteering to come here as they share a passion for animals and helping one's community. Thank you!

I am in need of p*e pads. If you have some p*e pads or want to donate, let me know. They are "golden" for those doing TNR, recovering and transporting cats. Thanks!
