Kittens/Cats in need of Help in Bellefonte, PA

[Anikaca77]

Well I went at lunch to get a trap from the SPCA so hopefully tonight I'll catch two.

I might try to get the pregnant girl outside my apartment maybe with the trap too, although she has come such a long way since last year with trusting me more and more, I'm afraid that it might really scare her and I don't want to harm her baby's if she is pregnant although I saw some pictures of pregnant kitties and she looks like them just not that big.

Well I'll let you all know how it turns out later.

Good luck with the trapping, and, yes, please keep us updated.

Did the SPCA give you guidelines on how to use a trap? Did they tell you to cover all except the door part with an old towel or sheet? Did they warn you that you might get anything, including possums, racoons and roaming tom cats in the trap? I just say that so you are prepared. If you place it near where you know they are hiding and put something tuna-based in there, you'll probably get something very fast.

Great ideas, I'll remember that and try that. I did use the trap before but I caught one cat that I couldn't take at the time so I'm sure he won't go in but maybe for the food.

Anyway, Ibetter go and I will get some tuna.

Thanks,

Melissa

I GOT A LITTLE GIRL!!!!!

She is a tortshell and so cute!!! It was so easy tonight. There were more kittens though and that was pretty sad but this one got a good home. They came tonight to pick it up and they had a little girl and she loved it.

I'm so glad. I just wish I could find familys for all of these other kittens that need a home.

But at least one is going to have a better life now.

Good to hear!

Did you get any of the "office staff" to help out?

Actually, have you asked any folks at YOUR office if they can help? Maybe check with your supervisor and see if you can post something in the lunchroom.

The kitten I gave away friday night died this morning.

The lady said she didn't eat or drink anything the day before. Not sure if it had cocicida or not.

I'm so upset now. I made this little girl so happy who got the kitten and now it's dead.

At least it didn't have to die in that disgusting house.

I have talked with some of the office staff, my office is very small and everyone knows everyone else's business so they all know but only one was willing to forward on my e-mail flyer to her friends.

I think some of my co-workers think I'm a bit nuts when it comes to this.

Co-workers thinking you are nuts is normal and happens to all of us. You are the one making a difference, they are not. I'm sorry about the kitten who died. I wish a rescue organization would work with you because it sounds like this place needs a major effort - trapping, testing, spaying and neutering, the works.
