Caught a "stray" cat......

[Matthew Paul]

I have 1 house thats been rented to a middle age woman , I was doing some clearing of brush and vines and I kept seeing this "stray" cat wandering around the house .(I have a NO pets policy) So the next day I brought my "catch em alive " trap baited with wet cat food. Caught the cat in the first hour we were working the next day . My tenant comes around the corner and sees the cat in the trap , and I could tell by the look on her face it was hers, but ....... she asks me what I am going to do with the cat ? Take it to the pound ? Now I wanted to know if it was hers without asking directly . I quickly said no , I have a friend with a big snake . She lost it , told me she has had that cat for 7 years I cant do that .

I then told her she can pick up "her" cat at the pound and handed her her 30 day notice , and told her to read her lease agreement about animals . I called animal control , had them come get the cat so I had a record of the violation .
