Many of the Foffarm animals have been found while driving. We have found them eating some decomposing flattened creature on the road, laying in plain sight along the road seeming very domesticated, hiding underneath the railroad tracks... Ugh it hurts my metaphorical heart to try and place each animal, successfully caught or not, along this country road. There is an 'on-the-go' list of supplies I keep in my car at all times, and it is more more accurately thought of as the 'oh-shit-kit'.
note: belts are my favorite item. They can serve as a leash or lead rope when needed. Or they can just hold up your trousers, and this is a stellar task as well.
- kitten food (for feeding a feral or luring friendlies)
- wet cat food
- two leashes (loop through 'no-collar-counted-on' sort)
- dog muzzle (fear/injury can cause misunderstandings to occur.)
- collapsible cat carrier
- towels
- halter and lead rope
- tarp (always handy for whatever you need)
Less practical and more personal choice item --
- a lightweight shovel
This sort of 'oh-shit' kit is the best permanent addition to my trunk that I have ever made. I would imagine that this preparedness brings a peace of mind to any mind in one piece.
