Cats #5, 6, and 7

It's been a while since I updated, but since the last post, I've caught and fixed three cats!  I had to take a couple weeks off because of rain and because one week I was sick.  After the two weeks off, the first one I caught was a female and the girl at the SPCA thinks she was actually pregnant, but they can still be spayed if they're pregnant apparently.  Here she is: 


The next one was one of the four little orange ones (my favorites, but shhh, don't tell the others!).  This one was the first boy of the little orangies so far.  I thought I would have trouble getting him because when I pulled up in my car to their area, he came out right away towards my car and watched me while I was putting the newspaper and food in the trap.  Then I set the trap and set it where I usually put their food and went to my car to wait it out.  Right as I was texting my husband that I was waiting to catch a cat, I heard the trap snap!  I think that little guy sniffed around it for about 30 seconds before he went in for the food.  Here he is:





Lucky cat #7 was a black cat again, which turned out to be a male.  I have to say, I much prefer catching females to males because the females don't stink!  Two of the males I've caught have sprayed or peed in the cage and when I take them in my car to release them, my car reeks for a couple days!!  They have some strong smelling liquids in them!!  Oh well, it's worth it.  Here are a couple pics of the last guy:
