Kia Thanks You for Helping . . .

. . . Even if she doesn't know it yet!

Thank you to everyone who has been helping, praying, and sharing the information about Kia and her plight

We think Kia is feeling a little spooked right now, and we want to minimize the activity level, and give her a chance to relax. We are afraid she will move to a different location if we don't.

So we are asking that unless you have already signed up to check the traps, please help by posting and emailing the electronic flyer, and spreading the word in any way you can think to do it! That would be much appreciated! 

We will keep you updated and will more than likely need additional help on Friday and over the weekend, so please keep checking back! And please continue to pray for Kia!

Trap #2 in place... need help checking

Trap #2 went up last night, and there was activity! In fact, all of the chicken around the traps was eaten AND the trap was tripped sometime Wednesday morning! But (sigh) but not by Kia  . . .  yet!!

Thanks to Rick for checking and replenishing the trap. He baited it with chicken on far wall behind the release mechanism, Vienna sausages behind the release on both sides of the bowl, and more across the trap floor and all around outside of the trap. No loose chicken was left inside the trap, but the bowl was still full.

Here's what the 2nd trap looks like:


If you can help with doing visual trap checks, or by doing in-person shelter checks... please signup on Kia's SignUp Genius page

THANK YOU!

CONFIRMED sighting ~ 5:35pm Tuesday

A high school student was driving, near where we were scouting, and saw Kia running along the road. This was just after 5:30 on Tuesday.

He recognized her from the flyers and pulled over. She panicked and ran into a construction site.

This was all very near to the Wendy's, which makes sense because thats a food source.

Also, around 15 minutes earlier, Luisa was able to get about 60 feet or so from Kia. Luisa reported that she appeared to be in relatively good health, and uninjured.
