HENRY HILL GANGSTER STRAY CAT FAMILY FINAL CHAPTER! Hey everybody, long time, no posting about the Henry Hill cat family I’ve had in my back yard for several months now. I now have for you the conclusion of their tale. #StrayStrong #LeaveACan #LeaveTheCanTakeTheStray 1/10
A warning in the spirit of Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. There is Very Bad Shit here but IT TURNS OUT OK. If you’ve been following you know I caught Gina & Gregg Hill, Henry & Karen’s kittens, and gave them a forever home. #StrayStrong #LeaveACan #LeaveTheCanTakeTheStray 2/10
If you’ve been following you also know I caught Henry, who was very feral indeed, got him neutered, vaccinated, dewormed, and microchipped, and after recovery released him from witness protection and back to his gangster life. #StrayStrong #LeaveACan #LeaveTheCanTakeTheStray 3/10
Karen was very smart and wily, and resisted being trapped. I noticed she was limping badly, adding to the urgency. On advice from a rescuer friend, I disguised the trap with some landscaping. #StrayStrong #LeaveACan #LeaveTheCanTakeTheStray 4/10
After a few nervous days, I trapped Karen! But I did not have a TNR appt set because I didn’t want to keep setting & canceling. I asked my friend if she knew anyone else doing TNR. She didn’t but she agreed to take Karen! #StrayStrong #LeaveACan #LeaveTheCanTakeTheStray 5/10
She got Karen to the vet the next day to check if pregnant and evaluate her left front leg. The vet discovered Karen had been SHOT in the shoulder! 😱Wound was a few months old. Leg is atrophied and useless. 😭 #StrayStrong #LeaveACan #LeaveTheCanTakeTheStray 6/10
Karen is now safe and happy😀, learning to be indoorsy in her forever home with my friend, who will care for her, have her spayed once determined if she is pregnant, and have the leg amputated if that later proves necessary. #StrayStrong #LeaveACan #LeaveTheCanTakeTheStray 7/10
Yes, that’s right, Karen Hill WILL make it in witness protection! BUT...we have a mob hitman in our neighborhood! What about Henry?!! We decided we needed to trap him again and get him safe. Out goes the trap again. #StrayStrong #LeaveACan #LeaveTheCanTakeTheStray 8/10
Cats that have been trapped are sometimes hard to trap again. Not Henry! I got him on the second night! Henry is now safe in witness protection with my friend and with his love Karen! #StrayStrong #LeaveACan #LeaveTheCanTakeTheStray 9/10
And that's it! There's no feral cats visiting my patio. Henry, Karen, Gina, Gregg are safe in witness protection, away from mob hits. They are indoor cats w/all the food, ❤️& warmth they could ever want. I love a happy ending! #StrayStrong #LeaveACan #LeaveTheCanTakeTheStray /end
BIG THANKS to @ilikefugazi @mouthntrousers for Gina & Gregg's amazing pet swag, @danahaviland for the feral cat heating pad which ended up being used for Gina & Gregg's spay recovery while in quarantine, and to them & @StrayLiotta & @LucyFurTweets for inspiration & support.😘
