The Munchkins' Mission

The Munchkins' Mission The Munchkins' Mission is a 501(c) 3 Non-Profit Organization. Our main goal is to educate, practice TNR (trap, neuter, return).

The Munchkin's Mission main focus is on TNR and educating about over population of cats in Leelanau Co, MI. Although we do take in cats and kittens we are limited by space. Until we have our own building we will do what we can to help the cats and kittens of our county. Thank you and please adopt from a shelter or rescue first. There are so many unwanted pets, adoption, spay and neuter are the best ways to help.

Had a brief, and went no where conversation with a gal today at petsmart.

ROMANTISIZING cats having kittens as living their best life is a fools statement.

Andrea feels this, Allison feels this... ANYONE IN TNR Feels this!!

During one of my drop off donations trip, I came across a woman who was actually returning trapping equipment.

Conversation:

Me: “Hi! How did you do? Were you successful?”

Her: “Yes, I trapped the cat, but couldn’t handle the idea of it being in the trap overnight. I trapped it just after midnight and decided to release it.”

It was at this point my heart started racing and my breathing changed. As I bit my tongue . . .

Me: “Oh? Did you notice it had an eartip?”

Her: “No, I didn’t see one.”

My fists were starting to clinch as I slowly turned away towards my car.

Her seeing I was irritated: “Well, I didn’t think it would be okay sitting in a kennel outside with the cold weather.”

(It was a low of 40°!)

Me: “You could put it in your bathroom.”

Her: “I don’t want that thing in my home!”

While smiling (or was I gritting my teeth), I explained to her where to go (nicely) and where the equipment should be left.

I left, filled with anxiety. I realized I just can’t do it any more. It’s just so hard to be nice.

But seriously, I’m sure I can do it. Although I don’t really want to surround myself with these kind of people once I’m able to be active again.

I’d be very happy to get a gig where I could just trap and never talk to a single person, just hand out business cards if they have questions.
