13 production lines closed down!

The trapping/neutering/returning went very well this week with 13 cats spayed/neutered.  Five (3 girls and 2 boys) earlier in the week (the sixth cat at that house unfortunately didn't get trapped even though I left the trap with the people for two full days, it was disappointing, I just hope it's a male) and 8 (4 boys and 4 girls) at the housing estate. There is still an adult and two kittens to be done at the housing estate but we are going to wait til the kittens are a bit bigger. It's good to know these 13 cats will be producing zero kittens this coming summer.

All the cats were in good health except for one of the males in the housing estate whose kidneys are failing.  He also has an eye infection which is being treated with anti-biotics.  The lady who feeds him was very open and willing to have him in a dogpen in her kitchen for the week he needs the anti-biotics but what happens after that?  He really needs to be in a home where someone can keep an eye on him and bring him to a vet if he needs help with his kidneys. Releasing him back into the estate again is not the best option but it may be the only option. The chances of someone offering him a home with his condition is, let's face it, slim to nil. He is a gorgeous white cat.  I've no idea if he is anyways tame, the lady will be able to tell me more after the week in her kitchen.

So keeping fingers crossed for a miracle for him.
