Nice To Know That Some People Notice

[allanimals21]

Not sure if this is the best place for this or not. Here goes....

So Monday afternoon the neighbors show up. They live on the other side of our 30 Acre field. Apparently my guineas decided to make a trip to their house and recruited their 2 males. So here I have 2 extra males and they want to catch them. Yea well day one didn't work. So yesterday they show up and we get to talking about the cats here. Alot of them were born here but I also take in the strays and in some cases when a cat is facing being shot elsewhere they end up here. So anyways we got to talking and I was telling them how in November I had got 10 of them fixed and vaccinated. Told them how I still have a few to do yet and that I've noticed a few more strays hanging around that I am going to try and live trap and do the same. She thanked me for what I do and all of that. I ended up catching their guineas with the help of my sister last night. Well the woman stopped by today and gave me $50 and said thanks again for helping with her guineas and for what I do for the cats......Its nice to know that someone notices and appriciates...Sometimes as I told her also it gets to be very overwhelming when you are feeding and vetting anywhere from 10-25 is the most we have ever had here. Right now we are at 15 and 3 strays. Things like this make me realize why I do it. Its just nice for someone else to notice and appriciate. Thats my story

There are still some really nice people out there that do appreciate the hard work that people like you to keep animals healthy.

Alot of people around here tend to think of it as "They are just cats who cares" or "You did what for a barn cat" "You spent how much on a stray?!" Like this last winter I had to have one of my barn cats tails amputated. He was gone for a few days Showed up with a broken tail. Where the break had been in the middle of his tail ended up getting infected and the antibiotics I had for him weren't kicking it. So off with the tail. Now his little stub isn't growing the fur back all so well. His stub has stubble on it. Like when you shave your legs and the hair starts to grow back. LOL Its cute.

We have someone down our dirt road that feeds the stray cats. I went passed the other night and counted about 15 to 20 cats on his property. It is annoying because people do not understand that it causes more issues in the end. I wish there was someone down our that would catch them and have them fixed.
