I'm going on a rescue trip

[Laura's Babies]

That is the problem SBR runs into when trying to trap ferals/strays for spay/neuter day, convincing people NOT to feed them that day! That is harder than trapping the cats in some areas. MIke had to really work hard with one old man in an apartment complex that had named all of the cats and fed them every day. It took him months to convince that man that this was BEST for the cats and that he WOULD return them to that complex. The night Mike went to trap them, the man watched everything and cried when Mike loaded them in the truck and drove off with his babies. He cried as he counted heads when Mike brought them back. Now Mike has a friend for life.

This rescue can't bring them back unfortunately, since the building's coming down. I guess the workers think we're going to put some of the cats down, but its a no-kill rescue. My sister lost one of the cats she was fostering from the warehouse due to health issues, and a few kittens died because the mother hid them and abandoned them, but those are the only deaths.

It's great that the workers care about the cats and keep feeding them, but it's such a shame they don't understand the process.

Sounds like the person heading the rescue needs to talk face to face with the workers and reassure them that the cats will be taken care of and not PTS.

I hope everthing works out and they get out of the building soon!
