Thread: Catalina Island Cats

    Catalina Island Cats

    Two weekends ago we visited Catalina Island off the coast of southern California. It's a long story...but my husband and I rode the bus around the small town of Avalon. We were at the far end of the town about supper time. From the bus and through the dusk I noticed a herd(??) of cats. There were probably 20 or so cats. With all that has happened since I forgot about it. Until this evening.

    Edwina and I decided to do some research about these cats. (Although, truthfully...she is of limited assistance as she is always walking on the WRONG keys.... )

    Here is the story....Catalina Cats ....

    I wish it wouldn't be so expensive to get to the island...

    What an amazing article. So sad, but so encouraging at the same time. At least they are making efforts and have continually advanced in them! Thanks for sharing this story!

    Poor kitties! I wish there was more than could be done for them. Is it not possible for them to offer some of the kittens up for adoption? Is there not anything else that can be done?

    What a wonderful story! Reminds me of K & L. At first it's a daunting task, but then progress starts to be seen.
