2 for 2

Just got back from taking the second guy (silver tabby) for his spa session at the vets. We named him Cairo. This guy has an eye infection that developed a couple days ago so I'm glad I got him in before it got any worse. Both boys will be spending the next 3 days at the MEOW shelter to make sure they've healed up properly. If either of them suddenly decide to show a friendly side, they WILL be admitted to the adoption program. Cairo might have a better chance of that than Memphis because I have been able to pet him in the past. But he was one angry mofo in the trap so I'm not holding my breath.

Something else that MEOW does is microchip the TNR cats. They'll be registered in MEOW's name, but my name and address will be listed as the caregiver so that if they are ever picked up by someone else, they can be returned to my location. Very cool.

I was so excited (and anal) about checking for them that neither cat spent more than 15 min in the trap. I could see it from my kitchen window and probably looked a gazillion times throughout the day. Not only was it covered with blankets and a garbage bag, it was on top of some thick cardboard and another blankie.

Off to go get beer and pizza for my sweetie.
