Got a job yesterday to help take Rosie the cat across to Yorkshire Cat rescue near Howarth as soon as we could in the next few days. Her owner is moving into sheltered acommodation and has sadly had to re-home her other cats. YCT have taken the other cats and whilst some are very timid due to their previous environment, YCR are working with them to bring them round and make them adoptable. Rosie's sister, Gracie, went across yesterday but Rosie couldn't be picked up and put in a carrier. YCR supplied a trap and I lisased with Kath's friend on how to set up he trap this morning so the could get the little girl. We starved Rosie over night and sure enough, 10 minutes after the trap being set the little cat was in, trapped and safe. As Rosie was a house cat this made things alot easier and I knew it should be quite a quick job as we near the cat would be nearby, hungry, and likely to feel safe in her own space.
The drive across from Leeds took around 30 minutes and Rosie was put in the same pen as her sister, Gracie, so the two can feel a little more secure in their new, and what must be frightening and strange, environment. They are in a safe environment, will be well looked after,a nd hopefully sometime down the road will find a new forever home together.
