Ferals #26 & #27

This was a pretty successful night of trapping. We trapped a couple of cats that we wanted to get, and we got to update our list, moving a couple cats around that we had listed twice. Look for updated numbers at the end of the month!

"Super Tiny Tabby"
This little cat is the last one on our list that was born in Spring 2015! He is very small compared to all the other cats his age and is very skittish. Just like we thought "Pale Spotted Tabby" was a boy because she was big, we thought Tiny here was a girl. It took him a long time to get used to going into a trap. His size made it easy for him to go into a trap with other cats too. That made it tricky to get him in the trap alone.

"Blind Eye Lynx Point"
This cat is also very skittish. Her eyes glow red in the right light, which we've read about being a thing in Siamese style cats. It is a genetic characteristic and it makes them not able to see in the dark as well as other cats. This and her one blind eye must be a factor in her skittishness. She was mother to a litter of kittens in late summer that local Animal Control discovered. Homes were found for all of the kittens!
