Dr. Lisa Pierson DVM is A W E S O M E! Her website - catinfo.org has everything a person needs to know about taking PROPER care of cats.

Is this the same Dr. Lisa Pierson who made the website with the raw cat food recipe and explanations?? If so, I love it! I have been making that same recipe for the past 6 months and I even got the Industrial Tool #12 meat grinder. My cats love raw food and I feel so good feeding them something I know is healthy for them! :) Thanks Dr. Pierson!

It's wonderful that there are still people in the world like Dr Pierson. Her website, catinfo.org, is an extremely valuable resource.

Many thanks on the trap instructions! I was going to contact you about it but, the instructions at your website are great.

GREAT JOB!!

We would need you here in Greece! Have been working with the normal trap, but some cats are really difficult to catch. Lately I haev been feeding the animals to get my hand on them - big mistake! Now I have way too many mouths to feed and still the females with kittens are too tough to catch.

Your idea, program and foundation is just marevelous.

Would you consider supporting a group here in Greece?

@puttycats2 The situation in Greece is insane! Tons of mostly street-savvy feral cats. When I asked around, I was told that spaying and neutering seems too cruel to the locals; the best you could get was basically dissolvable contraceptives, which we put in the water bowls.

(I'm sure we didn't have a great impact on the local population with that, but my mom did get a very sappy pet - with lots of vet visits - out of the friendliest of the bunch)

@ritchieannand Actualle "we" do not "ASK" we - I - just do it. Personally I have neutered over 300 cats.

Plus there are plenty of animal lovers here in Greece who do organize free neutering programs with UK volunteer vets and volunteer vets from other countries. All together we are making a difference. A trap such like yours would definately help even more.

The use of contraceptives is NOT an option due to the risk of uterous infection (peonmitra?) and the animals die again painfully slow,

Where do do you get one?

I made a drop trap but not as good as this one! I wish I thought of compacting it. Ijust used wood as a frame and cat netting.

Well thought out, About how many feral cats do you catch monthly?
