Help with class project- Oregon

Off Topic
  • crystalncodyC

    I'm working on a class project about cat colony caretakers and bird conservationists. Our class is surveying all 50 states and I am attempting to get in touch with cat colony caretakers in Oregon to have them do our survey because so far they are not represented in our project although I know that there is a strong community of them in Oregon. Over the past few months, I've tried most of the usual channels (Feral Cat Coalition of Oregon, shelters, vet offices, etc) but I haven't had any luck, so I thought I'd take a shot in the dark and see if any of our Oregon residents know of any cat colonies in their area.

    We are not taking sides in the issue, but we are hoping that what we learn from this research project will help to solve some of the conflicts between the two.

    If anyone in Oregon knows of any cat colonies (or people out of state knows of any in Oregon) I would really appreciate the help. I can also provide some more information about the survey and the project.

    Thanks!

    @sharronhurlbut: That is because Therese has just love dogs and you picked the right breeder and pup! Did your homework and see how you got "lucky"!!! True, true. I know someone mentioned in a thread something to the effect that they were hoping their b would stop being so clingy. I, on the other hand, love how Kipawa wants to be wherever I am. He will wake up from a dead sleep to follow me into another room. He really does not like me to be out of his sight, and I love that, because when I am out with him at an offleash park, he is the same. He always wants to know where I am. Regarding "luck"… well, I think it was just meant to happen. Kipawa and I bonded instantly. His little sisters were more interested in Darrel in his wheelchair, but Kipawa had to snuggle with me on the couch and put his snoot in my hair. I will never, ever forget that.

    I do rescue, so I do like spay/neuter, but these folks who are breeding for aggressiveness won't pay any attention to any of the laws that are passed. However, putting them in jail should get their attention. Pits are a good dogs but can be bred into a fighting dog. Basenjis are now good breeds, but anyone who has done rescue, or owned a "damaged" basenji knows they will bite and that can do damage! We need to put the responsiblity on the bad owners who breed for fighting dogs or even the BAD breeders who breed defective dogs and know it, and sell them anyway. Puppy lemon law anyone??? That shouldn't hurt the good breeders who have "something" come up, but the breeders who consistantly have sick/bad dogs… Just a thought.

    JYS, They only get wet food occasionally. I want to try to add the canned pumpkin to their diet but I keep forgetting to pick it up when I am at the grocery store! :rolleyes:
