Saving feral cats in Roxbury

Jonas Prang reports on his efforts to get care for some feral cats on Fort Hill:

[U]sing tuna fish, we successfully enticed three kittens into the house and closed the door behind them. Then using the kittens themselves as bait, augmented by more tuna, we were able to lure the Mother Cat into the house and close the door.

We had never really experienced the expression Climbing the walls until we saw Mother Cat levitate from floor to ceiling, seemingly counter to the laws of physics, in a wild attempt to escape. The raw animal power was humbling to witness.

Charles River Alley Cats, which tries to help feral cats, then provided some vital advice on how to handle the cats, he reports.
