Tanya’s troubles


This is Tanya…a nice looking long haired black female with a mild temperament who was dumped in the TD BankNorth parking lot last summer.  ARMV started trapping for her last November, by that time one kitten had already been killed in traffic.  ARMV managed to catch three of her kittens in November. One has since been adopted, one has died of an illness and one Sweet Pea is still waiting for her forever home. Tanya still remained elusive and only recently has been trapped with the last of her two autumn born kittens. These kittens have contracted Feline Leukemia from being exposed to the virus from other cats and can not be adopted. Tonya may now have a new litter of kittens out there under a shed or in a some other hidey hole and ARMV will try to find them. If we can’t we will have to put Tanya back outside to nurse them and hope we can catch them all again when her new kittens are old enough to start running around the TD Bank North Parking lot. Hopefully they won’t meet the same fate as most of their siblings.  This is an example of the tragic expensive cycle that happens when someone abandons a cat outside. ARMV shoulders the entire medical cost of examining and treating Tanya and all of her kittens regardless that only one of her kittens will bring in an adoption donation.
