CumbreCats TNR and Rescue

TRAPPING IS A TEAM EFFORT On April 19, 2022, our head trapper was out in the Girasoles zone behind Pepe La Sal. In this zone, we have a fantastic gentleman who has been feeding and caring for the CumbreCats for many, many years. He is the salt-of-the-earth kind and will be rewarded a thousand times over for being a spectacular human with a grand heart. TRAPPER REPORT: “I made an appointment with our CumbreCat man to co-ordinate a trapping session. We make a good team. He was instructed not to feed the cats the previous evening so that I could trap in the morning. We started at  8:00. I set up 2 traps for the goal to trap a female that our Feederman has tried to capture for many years.  We filled both traps with regular food and some tasty fish food. Then the trap dance, as we call it,   started. The CumbreCat lady danced around the trap, sniffing it, and then she danced over to the other trap and sniffed it.

The CumbreCats Arts and Crafts Market Fundraiser was blessed with a  gorgeous , sunny, no wind, morning on Saturday the 16th of April 2022. Once again the supporters of our campaign showed themselves to be the most fabulous, loyal, loving people.  Some came and supported the Tombola, others supported the arts and crafts people, others just came out with plastic bags full of coins.

Thank you ❤️☺️ LUNCH

However, on Thursday, March 17, 2022, with a break in the rain, two of our regular caregivers were able to trap in their neighbour colonies.  From the Magnolias zone, the local caregiver trapped a handsome grey male. This fluffy boy was the last of her garden family to be neutered.  And at the other end of the urbanisation, another longtime caregiver was able to coax a tomboy, white and ginger CumbreCat with some yummy snacks into a cage.  When the weather put on a sunny face, the CumbreCats were out and on April 7, 2022, our head trapper was able to work with some residents of Monte Cala. Trapper Report: "The weather finally changed and I started with 2 new trappers in Monte Cala. At first, a little instruction was necessary and afterwards, we wanted to start. But unfortunately, many neighbours appeared and wanted to h...
