    First Trapping Success

    She has been adopted by a great family that will give her what she needs. They also understand that they will need to be patient with her as she adjusts.

    need help please!!!

    Definitely stress related. When I added two kittens at home, the two brother cats that I had already started getting in fights with each other every once in a while and we never had that problem before. Both have settled down now but it took a few months. Patience may solve the problem over...

    First Trapping Success

    Here are two pictures of the little girl. She is super tiny, I would say about 6-7 pounds at the most. This picture is her on the night that we caught her. It had poured all day. She is recovering sitting in her favorite corner of my room on her favorite plastic grocery bag.

    Hypothermia in cats?

    Was it tested for feline leukemia? It often attacks the bladder and can lead to neurological abnormalities. I had a cat who died from it and he had similar symptoms just before passing. Below is a link that have some symptoms http://www.essortment.com/all/felineleukemia_retz.htm If he had...

    question about ferals, raccoons and deer

    A cat would not eat a berry, not unless it was very hungry. I can't think of anything less expensive than fruit that fits all the qualifiers. I know possums and raccoons like eggs too, but I am not sure if a cat would eat them either. As someone mentioned earlier, I think the best bet would...

    question about ferals, raccoons and deer

    Possum and raccoons love berries. Deer will eat berries too, but I don't believe they would go out of their way to travel to eat berries unless there were a lot of them. Fruit in general would work, but I wouldn't put out too much. Maybe put something over the corn so the raccoons and possums...

    Relocation to Bed and Breakfast offer???

    Thank you for all of the insights, I don't think I am going to give her these cats, but I will see if there are any other cats that I can find for her. I am sure someone has to have feral cats that they are looking to get rid of. The family unity of this group is too strong plus they know the...

    Relocation to Bed and Breakfast offer???

    I am not so sure about her. When we talked she talked about how she had saved a kitten from near starvation from a drainpipe at Wal-Mart and how she had gotten another companion for the cat and how it had disappeared probably because some one picked it up and took it. Apparently it was really...

    First Trapping Success

    I had to relocate to my parents basement as it was getting iffy as to whether people knew there was a cat in my room. When I come back from dinner after being away for 4 hours and see her perched on my windowsill I get a little scared. Then 10 minutes later when I leave my room and there is...

    Relocation to Bed and Breakfast offer???

    The president of PA Pets (the group that is sponsoring my TNR) has found someone that owns a Bed and Breakfast on 17 acres of land out in the country and they are looking for some outdoor cats because they currently have only one and he is lonely. The owner has offered to feed and provide...

    First Trapping Success

    She really wants to go outside and look out the window, but I can't let her because I am not allowed to have cats in my building. So I have put so much stuff up against the blind but she still wants to look outside to see the cats on the other side of the window. She is warming up to me some...

    First Trapping Success

    Yeah, I hope she stays calm too, I just wonder how I am going to get her outside when I am ready to release her if/when she needs to be released. If she is no longer calm, getting her out from under my bed is going to be an adventure.

    First Trapping Success

    I think adoption may be a possibility for her as she is somewhat calm and relaxed. Even last night in the trap she did not make a sound all night and just sat calmly in the cage. She lets me walk over to her and crouch down next to her, she sort of winces a little, but then she straightens up...

    First Trapping Success

    She is recovering in my dorm room. Yes, that is right, she, it is a beautiful female cat. Also the vet listed her as being six years old. She is much smaller than my kittens are at my house and they are only 8 months old. So much for being a young cat like I thought. It is hard to think of...

    First Trapping Success

    So yesterday we decided that the kitten that has been running back and forth across the road needed to be caught so we set the trap out in the pouring rain to try and catch the little guy. Well, two other cats came over and checked out the trap, HamCat, and Analeigh, unfortunately they were...
