This blog was initially created to track my volunteer time at the Rome cat sanctuary in March/April 2008. That time has come and [sadly] gone, so after some thought, and rather than leave the blog idle, I have decided to record my trapping experiences whilst working with the various local Leeds cat charities.

Factory cats... update 1
Right, as I said we went to the factory site today. Very depressing, just a huge walled-off piece if waste-land where the cats are living/breeding. We were there some 30 minutes and a bout a dozen cats, mostly 4-6 months old kittens heard us and came out thinking they were going to be fed. Angeliki reckons there are probably about 50 cats in there. Whilst the cats looked fairly healthy, she says they will all have a short, hard life. Poor buggers. We'll do what we can, but it is like a finger in a dyke to the overall problem.
It doesn't help that there is a working factory over the road, with yet more cats/kittens wandering around that we saw. I guess the cats cross over the road between the 2 areas.
Here's some of the guys we saw today....
