@cynthiae300: Route breakdown: Managing our 0.5-mile colony stretch means zig-zagging every block to check on every single bowl and face. The latest update from the far end of the route: a new male tabby has made himself at home. He’s friendly and intact, which immediately puts him at the top of our TNR radar. With spay/neuter clinic slots so limited, the clock is ticking to get him booked, trapped, and vetted before he starts roaming too far or causing friction with the local colony cats. Keeping tabs on every block takes time, patience, and consistency—but getting this guy fixed is the next mission.
