I moved into a trailer park after my house was foreclosed. Unfortunately,some people abandon their cats here when they move. I had 2 cats when I moved in. Now I have adopted the strays Sobe,Mouse & her 5 kittens,& I'm caring for 3 regular strays & any other stray who comes by. These are their stories. I'm trying to make this a place where any stray can come for food,medicine,or just a friend. Also some articles of interest to the cat parent or stray cat caretaker!

Jethro! Another Success Story!
Jethro(so-called because his appetite matched that of Jethro from "The Beverly Hillbillies")showed up one day,lying under the truck. He had serious mange on his head & ears,& his whiskers looked almost as if they'd been burned off. He would only move to eat. He was very feral,& hissed if I got too close. I got a dose of Revolution from the Vet,& squirted it on him while he was busy eating. Within a week he was a new cat,& he even stopped showing up for food. I've seen him a few times since,but not recently. I hope he's OK,& I'm glad I could help him get rid of his mange. The top photo shows him before treatment,& the lower one is shortly after.
