Welcome to the World of Ferals, hunh? Hubby, who's back is out and in several weeks is heading in for surgery that will put him out of commission for 8 - 12 weeks, spent 3 hours this morning working on trapping the two kitties we have homes for. He only managed to catch the orange one.
Took orangie to the Vet. The woman who said if we could catch him, she'd take him, was working. I said triumphantly "He caught him!" She started laughing and said, "Oh My, isn't life funny? I just adopted a rag doll a few days ago."
Would've been nice if she'd called to let us know! They have our number. It's not like it's been a month since she said she'd take him.
But he's absolutely darling, and the other woman said she's confident she can find him a home. We did have a Doc see him (he's already had his shots, etc.). Even though he's young (probably 4 months), if he's big enough, might as well get him neutered. They said it's a go (he was always huge, the biggest of the litter), so since he'd just eaten, they'll do it tomorrow. It'll take him a couple of days to recover, so we have a deadline - otherwise we'll have to release him. I hope he has another angel watching over him!
