Paloma - tame (now adopted)
Myrtle - tame (now adopted)
Heinz - feral - released back to colony
Grimalkin - feral - released to colonyAnother update from Dona, one of our fearless feeders and trappers!
"Just a few of the ferals we've trapped so far. Two were T/N/R (Heinz and Grimalkin), the other two were pregnant females who've been adopted."
When we trap these cats, they are all sterilized. The tame ones are placed in foster care and adopted out, the feral ones go back to their home territories where we support them with food, water, shelter, and medical care in their colonies. If a female is pregnant when we trap her, we abort the kittens - a hard thing to speak of, but necessary when dealing with the kind of cat overpopulation crisis that we are seeing in Regina.
