Time passes differently in the BCN world than in real life. The BCN children jumped across some developmental stages, and BCN cats don’t grow old and die (though some ghosts from ages past do occasionally pop up). Having kittens around in the strip works well, but if teenage-kitten Bea and younger kits Iggy and ‘Zella were to grow up in the strip, Georgia’d need to introduce more young’uns, expanding a cast that’s already difficult to keep track of, unless one’s a hard-core BCN nerd. Not to mention the “Our IX Lives” cast and the forest creatures…birds, raccoons and opossum folk.
Time for some epidemiological statistics. “Natural” un-neutered cats living in the wild are much less likely to die of cancer than are un-neutered house cats because they have an average lifespan of three years and are therefore less likely to live long enough to develop it. Cancer incidence increases with age.
Let someone else take the main role in taking the trapped cat to the vet. When they come home, you can be the person who frees the cat from the nasty trap.
