A black and white photograph of two, water-vapor contrails emanating from center-bottom, out-of-frame, extending upwards and diverging out to the two top corners of the image frame, creating a many-miles wide ‘V’ in the otherwise clear sky.  The top of a palm tree and two angled rooflines intrude into the image creating counterbalance to the scene.

Tomahawk makes sturdy traps, but like their previous endeavor into remote controlled traps (which they discontinued), they have made it overly complicated, prohibitively expensive and prone to false triggers. Keep it simple, easy and cheap.

(I have been building remote controlled traps for years)

Retirement rather than stand up and do the right thing. A bunch of cowards. Their spouses and families must be sooo proud. Once out of office, I wager most will run for some local office in their home town.
Their cowardly faces should be plastered on billboards.

And disallowed from any politics.

Actually, when I bring a cat home from a traumatic vet visit, I release them into their most familiar part of the house and I disappear. I ignore the cat until the cat comes looking for attention. For me and my cats, this process works better. I seems I am less likely to be blamed. 😜

Sometime you gotta do what you gotta do.

I had to trap one of my own indoor cats last week. We've had her for over 10 years and has never let us touch her.

Make it quick-cover the trap. Don't let him see or hear you. Let the vet do all the handling. You don't want Cookie connecting you to this.

My wife watches old B&W movies almost exclusively. I am slowly being drawn in. As a kid, I was not allowed to watch Hitchcock movies, but the wife is an aficionado, so now...

No way I could turn away a Tortie. Good luck.

I started small. Then I found out about the cats living in the parking structure where I worked. They were marked for extermination. My wife and I stepped in. Trapped and adopted 19 that summer. I became the local trapper for several rescue orgs.

Seven sounds like a good number. (I cannot remember when our numbers were in the single digits). 😉😄

...lighted, arched stairwells. Then the silhouette of the cat in the window was out so large, it was out of proportion to the house and those stairways. Finally I refocused and saw the sconces, and everything fell into place. Weird. Now I cannot see the duplex or stairways. Cool.

Interesting photograph.
Before I clicked full-screen, I stared at the photo for a long time. It was an abstract, optical illusion for me. I thought the house was a duplex and the light from those two sconces illuminated the siding was actually two separate entrances at the top of two separate...
