Hope you had a great Thanksgiving! Did you save some leftover turkey for the ferals? Don’t give them the carcass and be extra careful they can’t get it out of the garbage – cooked poultry bones are bad!
Ready for Black Friday? Keep our wish list in mind as you see those crazy deals but don’t forget to shop local for Small Business Saturday and you never know what will pop up for Cyber Monday. Then there is Feral Fixers big day, #Giving Tuesday! Make a donation and stop at Portillo’s for some great food. Hope to see you there!
Just A Few More Cats For November
We had a few more friendlies for the November 21st trip. 4 friendlies, all boys, made the trip to ADOPT. They decided they could make room to take one of the kittens in for adoption, Sage – he is a very bouncy, sweet kitten. This brings us to 30 for November, 708 for the year and 11,679 since our beginning.
The message about TNR is out, not trapping when it is below freezing, not so much. Quite a few calls from people who went and trapped and THEN called us. We are directing them to DuPage County Animal Services and ADOPT to process the cats on their own. We have to be firm, this is the time of year to turn to paperwork, fundraising and planning for next year! If you have one of our traps, please return them ASAP. Our pile is very low, don’t hold onto them when others can use them first thing in the Spring!
