Thinking about joining SNAP's cat wranglers?
Well, we can't promise an experience like the guys here -- except for the scratches, of course.
So what qualities should a cat wrangler have? A cat wrangler should have respect for feral cats. Remember, they have five points of sharpness. We don't have any.
Wranglers can't be minors (under 18 years of age) unless a parent accompanies them. They need patience and cunning. Some ferals are very smart about avoiding traps. Wranglers have to be smarter.
Newbies often quit because it's hard to see ferals as something other than pets; and ferals want nothing to do with people (well, they'll take the food). While many ferals become attached to their caretakers, this kind of relationship can take years to develop. So gentle persistance is another good quality to have.
The bottom line is do you want to help ferals? If so, give us a holler. We'll get back to you.
