He's back.....

We've been asked a few times if we plan to spay or neuter some cats at Barn Cat Mansion.  Two or three males are headed to the OR, but Bumble, Pinkerton and Tipster are not included.  We never spay any females and we rarely give any cats away.  The reason for this??

Cat Wolf

is an ever present threat to feline inhabitants of BCM.  Every precaution is taken to ensure the welfare of our cats, but if they are caught out hunting when coyotes are hunting, they become the hunted. 

Sad but true.....

    I couldn't stand that. I would be giving the females away to homes where they are kept safe.

      Last year, after the magpies took 3 out of 4 kittens from H"C"S's litter, we were left with 1 male (Tipster) and Orangey Tail's kittens were all males. So, the 3 females we had last year are all mature and all still here :)

    Please don't tell us if any of the kitties are taken. I wouldn't want to know :(
