The Kittens Dilemma
The compound our office is in (Bushehri Garden) is inundated with cats. It’s actually swarming with them. So it wasn’t too much of a surprise to hear some squeaks coming from our office garden this morning. Going to investigate, I found these little things…
Question is now, what do we do with them? Wring their necks or feed them?
What do you think?
I have a little feeling that you will be feeding them
We brought 8 cats & 2 dogs from Bahrain to Spain, then a bunch to the UK. Take them in, neuter them (including Ma & Pa) and give them a good home. As you’re aware ferral dogs n cats have an awful time in Bahrain (not much better in Spain!). Help create a country-wide neutering program. I’m sure you’re a member of the BSPCA anyway, so neck wringing doesn’t come into it!
Unfortunately (or fortunately?) mummy kitten decided that she didn’t like all the attention, so while we’re not looking, she scuttled them away over the wall. They were long gone by the time I came back to the office this afternoon.
I’m sure I’ll see them around the compound…
If you are really being overrun with cats, we would like to suggest implementing some sort of Trap / Neuter / Return process. There must be facilities for that somewhere in Bahrain.
Alley Cat Allies and likely many other sits could tell you more about thie approach, if you are not already familiar with the ideas.
