WOW! Great job Jan! I really really hope she is pregnant and not nursing. I hate the thought of there possibly being babies out there but the cycle had to be broken. Please keep us updated. She is so lucky you found her and got her out of those horrible conditions.

And the weirdest thing is that we had a similar sort of day you and I altho my capture was not nearly as heroic. Our first customer for our neuterthon let his cat escape before he got inside the vet clinic this morning. We chased the cat across a 2 lane then 4 lane highway to a little used car lot. I got down on belly (you're familiar with position) to look under building and there's 2 other cats under there. They came to me. Both boys and neutered! Whoa! Next door is this falling down building with doors hanging off, no windows and junk piled everywhere. I go inside and holes in floor and trash everywhere. Calling and calling for the kitty that escaped. Couldn't find him but 2 OTHER cats were in this building. One uncatchable and 1 I could catch. A beautiful medium long hair orange tabby with a gorgeous big face. So I go back to clinic, get box, and Tom as I call him got neutered. The only bad part was that it has been raining here about all day and there was mud everywhere so I was a soaking wet muddy mess but my dear sweet husband brought me a change of clothes down to dry tennis shoes. I brought Tom to the animal shelter after surgery and checked back later after neuterthon was over and he was doing great. A little ticked off about finding himself in a cage in a strange building but none the worse for wear.

But all in all Jan, I'd rather do all of this in 60 degree weather in rain than in the snow. I was a little chilled but frostbite is not even a thought! I'll be thinking of the angel you saved tonight and waiting to hear the update!
