For many years Mom fed and provided shelter to the feral cats that hung around her office building.
This
little trio of kittens were rescued by Mom and her boss in 2003 in the
back lot of the office. The little gray one ended up being our cousin,
Angel Gizmo, who lived with Mom's sister.
Angel Gizmo preferred Christmas trees to outside trees after his rescue. These are just a few of the many ferals that hung around or visited over the years. The building was sold the summer of 2009 so the ferals have gone elsewhere. Mom drives down that street often and still looks for her buddies but has never seen one.
National Feral Cat Day was launched in 2001 by Alley Cat Allies, the national advocate for feral and stray cats and a recognized authority on Trap‐Neuter‐Return. Check out their site for information on lots of ways you can help feral cats!
It was great that your mom looked out for these feral kitties.
ReplyDeleteWe are so happy Angel Gizmo got rescued. It was wonderful your Mom was able to help the feral kitties where she worked. We posted about National Feral Cat Day too.
ReplyDeleteYour Mom is super special for looking after the homeless ones, but y'all know how special she is! Our Feral Day post got delayed because the Dad was doing the TNR thing.
ReplyDeleteFeral cats can become very nice pets but take a lot of patience.But it is so rewarding when they learn to trust you. Great post. And good for the Mom to take care of the ones at work.
ReplyDeleteThank you for caring for those feral cats. All cats deserve love and respect, right?
