What an ordeal, we hope the kitty finds its way to the trap and you can end its suffering. I would then be tempted to find a spay/neuter flyer and make copies of it and leave a new one at her house every day.

Thanks for the ongoing support folks, right now I feel like using a profanity but i won't , we caught a cat alright, but the wrong one, the sister or brother of the injured cat, my I was tempted to hand that one in too, but i need the trap for the injured kitty, tomorrow is going to be harder as we will have no idea where it is,this sure is going to take some miracle if we are to get it, it is determined not to be caught, I thought it would have been hungry enough to go for the trap, I guess I was wrong, we did not even know the other cat was under there, but I figured this was a possibility, each day that goes on is another day of suffering, I am desperate to capture kitty, my mind won't rest until I can.

Keep those prayers a coming folks, kitty needs all the help it can get, I know the sad truth is it is the end of its life when I catch it and that tears me up inside, but I know also it is the only thing we can do,but gosh it is a hard thing to think about, even knowing its for the best in the long run.

I am wondering what the so called owner is going to do when she sees the note left by the SPCA, I hope i don't end up in a confrontation with her, because I don't feel strong enough to handle that right at the moment, still the SPCA have asked if I will make a statement if required I have said I will, she will probably get off with a warning anyhow, she can always use the excuse I can't capture the cat, still she made no attempts to contact the SPCA I was the one to do that, so that does not look good on her part, I must tell you also when the SPCA arrived, low and behold the land agent for the landlord of the units happened to be there by chance, so she heard it all, my understanding is she is allowed one cat no more, so they now know she is breeding cats like fleas, i made sure she heard that, and they are not properly looked after, apparently get this, the neighbour had complained there were mice under the unit, strange with all those kitties, now wasn't that a stroke of good luck, i never knew who the land agents were, now I do and it might be one way of getting her out of my neighbourhood, sadly that won't help the kitties she has.

Will keep you updated, I am going to set the trap again tomorrow. wish me all the luck in the world to get the right kitty this time, thanks.

Carole,

What an ordeal you're going through. I know it's difficult, but you need to think that trapping the kitty is a good thing, even though the end result may very well be euthanasia. At least the kitty won't be in pain anymore and won't die alone out in the cold elements.

I hope the landlord nails the 6itch for breeding. Backyard breeders hold very low esteem with me. They're down there with other bottom feeders such as lawyers and car salesmen.

I give you KUDOS for caring. Some people would've just thrown their hands up in the air and said, "Oh well!!"

Love and hugs,

Donna

The trap is set again, no takers, we don't even know where the kitty is now, it may still be under the house, probably dying a slow painful death, which makes me feel sick to the stomach, I will keep trying to get this kitty if its the last thing I ever do.

UPDATE, well we kept the trap there all day long, luckily i could see all the other cats were not under the house, we finally gave up late afternoon, and went and did the paper run, low and behold we check out her place and there is the kitty, hobbling around, the little devil is so cunning, it must have been under the house all day and would not even take the bait, anyhow I have had enough, I rang Jenny the SPCA lady and told her she has done nothing for this poor wee thing, and i want her prosecuted if you can, she actually stopped by my home, and told me she had issued another notice telling her if it did not get vet treatment by 5pm tomorrow she will be taking her to court, a small victory in itself, but still that does not help the kitty, I just fear this will blow up in my face and the kitties will be the ones to suffer, I am scared that moron boyfriend of her daughter's decides to kill it, legally they can if it is done humanely, but i doubt that would happen.

The guy's next door told me when they took her cats new kittens over to her they were like two days old and he said they have never been seen since, she just took them , never said anything and shut the door, now I am thinking that moron did take them for eel bait, the thought makes me shudder, I cannot believe anyone could be so cruel, but just look at her leaving this poor kitty to suffer, I am so darn fustrated, I can see the kitty , get so close and then boof its off, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let there be a decent end to this awful story and soon, because it is wearing me out both physically and emotionally.

P.S the kitty is sitting on her doorstep right now, and I only wish I could get it, but as soon as we get near it is off again.
