Thanks Red Top Rescue, but I must ask when all is said and done when the distance is thousands of miles the professional pet transport people still have to ship the pets by air - where they are then moved from plane to plane by the same baggage handlers they would be if I just do so myself.   ...

Hi all, soon I may be traveling by air checking my two cats as baggage.   They are both too big to go under the seat in the cabin and I have no option to leave them at home as I'm moving.   It's been many years since I did this but when I last did in 2005, the TSA made me take both cats out of...

Thanks Lamiatron!    I had to laugh at how you stayed awake to avoid being possessed by the demon.   I had been watching a movie on my computer and could not peacefully go back to watching it until Big Guy calmed down.    I mean what if he really was reacting to something I had to do something...

LOL, well fortunately he didn't start banging  his head against the wall but I was getting worried there for a bit!    He did finally calm down, took him almost an hour.   I looked outside to see if there was anything or any smells but couldn't tell with my stuffy old human nose.    The thing...

Hi all, so my Big Guy was asleep next to me and he startles awake and runs around the living room sniffing the air switching his tail.   He even ran under the sofa a few times.  For the next 30 minutes he patrols my apartment sniffing acting like some other animal is in here.    I have another...

Are you sure your indoor situation won't work?   Since you are so close to the old location you will inevitably be exposing the kitties to certain risks - going back to check out their old place for sure.   Neglectful owners can still be quite possessive of their animals - quite incomprehensible...

Awwwww, I'm so thrilled!!!!  I've been away a bit so got caught up on the whole story.    I can tell Pawley knows he's got it made in the shade now

What cool digs you made for them!   I hope they go once it's cold enough  - here's the heat face for them too

More warm vibes for the feral kitties!     Okay that's an angry face, but flames are coming out the top to create some heat!!!!   Ok this one's probably best

I hope your boys are okay TigerCat.    More safety vibes from them and all the feral kitties out there!  

Vibes for staying warm and safe for all the ferals out there tonight and in the coming week!  

AWESOME!!!! In a happy coincidence, I just posted a link to your and Roxie's thread to Gyrene2083 a Marine with a semi-feral kitten, I think he'll be encouraged by your story.

Hi gyrene2083, here's the link to Roxie's story http://www.thecatsite.com/t/265746/i-think-i-adopted-a-formerly-feral-cat-help About the brushing, when I brush Patches she is not constrained at all so it is possible to do.    She of course had to get tame enough to where I could first let her...

Thanks sweeetthangtx!     I think my Patches is a special hard case - either really traumatized and/or too intelligent or both!  I was able to lure her into the humane trap one time - for check up (after 7 years) and dental but that was it.    Last time I had to get her I had no choice but to...

But does she come to you eventually or towards you some?   Sounds good if she's making any moves towards you.   It is just going to take quite some time.    I do encourage you to try the fur brushing/combing at some point.    That is the #1 activity that helped me tame my two feral kittens...
