Noticed yesterday that Dash is getting really matted. I have set the traps out this morning. The only problem in trying to trap escape artist Dash, is that the other feral cats end up in the traps as well. While I was setting up the traps, Tipster came up to me and was headbumping me, so I grabbed him and was going to carry him to the patio. As I was going over the fence however, Lei barked, scaring Tip and I fell backward over the fence ,let go of Tip and off he went. Good thing there was no nosey neighbor with a video camera. Falling on a picket fence backwards kind of hurt, but what hurt worse for me was scaring poor Tipster.

So far, I have trapped Cleo, Squirrel and Mercedes. Left is Tip and then Dash. She has been up by the trap (it is on top of the well house) several times. She keeps trying to get to the food inside without going inside. I hope this works, her back legs are really matted.
