Meet Bread a stray cat that visits my house I’ll be attempting to trap and release this week
(lemmy.zip)
So there’s a huge stray cat problem and population in Corfu and I’m trying to make a tiny difference. This is the first cat I’ll be trapping myself and releasing. Today my friend‘s mom dropped off a trap and we’re gonna set it up and see what happens. I’ll keep you guys posted
(Edit: edited to say I am sure he is a stray because he doesn’t belong to any of my family which are the only people that live around me and there’s only a main road that you would have to cross to get here and I’ve been feeding him for three months either way, the vet will confirm if he’s microchip or not too. Also, I’m not releasing a randomly I’m going to release them right where he comes to eat. )
It's an extremely dumb mentality. In my country (mostly countryside) people just get rid of the puppies and kittens in awful ways. Put them in a bag and throw them in the river, strangle them, give them to vets to put them down or what my late neighbor did bury them alive right after they're born. It's sickening.
EXACTLY THIS HERE TOO IT DISGUSTING
Here’s a post to three cats that were tied in a plastic bags and thrown in dumpster.. Lucky a tourist found them and I bottle fed them and all three survived. Unfortunately a few others I’ve tried to bottle feed weren’t as lucky because it’s super hard with out the cat moms milk :(

So, that's why they want more of them.
