Spay and neuter adventure

We had our first experience with POP (Pet Overpopulation Patrol) on Saturday. It was wonderful! Two young women spent 12 hours in the mobile unit at Morrisville Outlet Mall spay/neutering, one animal about every 15 minutes! We picked our guys up at 7:00pm, they were the last 2. They were out of it Saturday night but fit as a fiddle Sunday morning, hungry and starved for affection!

POP works with low income families and various rescue groups in the area and can be reached (919)942-2250. In addition to the surgery, they receive their rabies shot and FVRCP vaccine. Such a wonderful service.

This is White Feet napping with one of the younger kittens. We used to name each kitten that came to stay with us but we’ve run out of names so we use descriptive terms! This guy has been with us for awhile, you can see pictures and information in earlier entries. His litter was older and a little wilder than the young ones we usually get. He is very friendly now and loves all his playmates, both young and old. He especially loves our lab, Daisy. His fur is medium length and so silky.

She came to us mid-August and has spent most of her time downstairs with the younger kittens. She has been extraordinarily healthy (actually both have been) for an orphan kitten. She hasn’t spent much time with the adult cats but enjoys all the other animals. She’s sitting in my lap helping me type right now!
