    YAY!!!!!!!!!!!Good job! I just got wind of a local nightmare around here, and 2 nights ago went to invesigate. It looked like a Steven King nightmare with all the look-a-like black & whites, mingled with one or two calicos, and tabby/ whites. I managed to net 6 tinies (8 weeks) and had to call it quits and get home to the 'doo-dees' waiting. 5 out of six are girls! And two more obvious girls (red patch tabbies) still out there. The words out though, and hopefully this mess will be controlled in the course of a week or so..but I suspect kittens will be coming out of the woods for weeks to come. I dread to think of how many coyotes have picked off...but survival of the fittest I guess. Sure wish I had a video camera of alllll the bl/ white cats! All black have to be the worst though lol!

    QSL, you still at it! Thank God there are people like the both of you to do this, but the world needs a whole lot more to do what you are doing.

    My problem would be that I would want to keep them all!

    It's never ending! We use to have mostly calico's at the park, then it turned to orange & whites, now it's blacks and they are the hardest to determine if they've already been trapped. Since they're so dark, and we trap after sunset, it's hard to see their ear-tip unless they're already in the trap. Luckily we won't have to worry about this bunch.
    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    Good thing they tip their ears though, or you'd never be able to figure out who's who!

    Trapping black cats at night is the worst lol! All those dark shadows lurking in the dark that you sit and stare at...and they turn out to be just that...shadows. I call them hallucination cats.
