By TerrieLynn Bach   One weekend last fall, a lost kitty Facebook post caught the attention of one of our awesome cat team volunteers. Launa gathered up a trap, bait, cover, and other supplies to go see how she could help.   Despite several neighbors sighting the frightened, lost kitty, Luna, by the time Launa […]

While 2021 looked like something the cat dragged in thanks to the pandemic, for Bastrop C.A.T.S., it was a great year!    January through December 2021, we TNR’d 1,057 cats. That is a lot of cats!   That puts our four-year total at 3,592 cats.  That’s amazing that over 3,500 cats have been spayed/neutered– just […]

by TerrieLynn Bach   Last month, we heard about Donkey, a calico kitten who found love with his new furever  family’s pitbull-mix, but he isn’t the only cat to find love at first sight!  Several years ago, I fostered Harriet and her litter of adorable kittens. A former street cat and part feral, part somewhat-socialized, […]

People always ask if they can bring their TNR cats in a carrier to the vet clinic because they, the caretakers, want to be able to touch them or pet them and provide comfort to their pet.  However, it’s safer for the cat and the veterinary staff if the cat receives their first knock-out shot […]
