Rebus Redux

To be honest, he may be Philo, but Rebus’s name provides alliteration.

In any case, I was able to re-trap one of the black kittens this morning. I’m sure he’s kicking himself for falling for the same trick twice, but the temperature dropped to -12° (-4° F) last night, so if he can be tamed, it will be the last frigid night Rebus will have to suffer.

There are still Philo and Rhombus to re-capture. The latter I have not seen since I released him subsequent to his neutering, but I will plan for his trapping, too. In the meantime, I will hope my luck holds. If I am lucky, then the remaining pair of kittens will be, as well.

  1. That’s excellent! Here’s hoping you can get the others before the weather gets any worse.

  2. That's fantastic news! Hopefully, Rhombus and Philo will be caught quickly before the cold weather really arrives. Please keep us posted.

  3. *jumping up and down, clapping*
    Way to go, one down, two to go!
    And here I am, grousing about the 2 inches of white fluffy stuff that fell this morning, and has mostly melted away now. That will teach me!

  10. One down, two to go! This is wonderful John. I'm sure that with the colder weather the kittens will be more likely to be less cautious as they need the extra calories to stay warm. Good luck!

  11. P/R back inside while the temps have dropped so drastically. He may
    not understand for a long while how good it is to live inside, but
    hopefully he'll come around. Good luck with the other 2. Winter is
    so unkind to animals who do not belong out there.
