Gerald came to Stargate2 early this morning and there was an orchestra! I think it was Gerald as well as Robin, both vocalising to the hilt!
Before the neighbours complained, I quickly distracted him to eat.
Eat, eat, eat to your heart’s content, Gerald!
Later in the morning, I spotted Creamy on the neighbour’s roof. I offered him a bowl of food but he was too scared to eat, so he fled to the playground. I followed him there and he ate at the playground, multiple times too. Creamy is a very private cat.
I still don’t know what luck befell on me 4 days ago to enable me to catch both of them at one go and got them neutered. I don’t think I can catch them anymore now. The vet said even if I cannot bring them over for the booster vaccination, one dose that day is also helpful since they are more than 1 year old and already have street immunity.
I think perhaps both of them were interested in mating with Samantha, so that is how I managed to catch them that day. They were distracted by Samantha.
While I was feeding Creamy, I managed to share the CNRM concept with a neighbour from another road. She was very receptive to the idea as she doesn’t agree with capture-and-kill. Hopefully she will go back and share it with her neighbours too. There are quite a number of homes here that have cats, but their cats are not neutered and are free-roaming.
