She is HUGE today and hissy. She also seems to want to leave the storage room. The bedding in the kennel is disturbed, so I'm just going to leave her alone today. There's plenty of food/water but if I can I'll move it closer to the kennel, as well as her litter box. I put another bed on the sofa...
Thanks. Good ideas. I've been able to go in and out okay for some reason. I'm hoping she will become friendlier like she was outside once she adjusts. I noticed that she went to the litterbox near where she was staying on the other side of the room, but I think she might have pooped in the...
This morning, she is now shut in the storage room but not in the kennel. I don't know if it was my other tuxedo male (I had him neutered five years ago) who shows up sometimes that helped just by being around early this morning. He doesn't fight with her. For whatever reason, she is in the...
Thanks. I'm trying. Currently, she barely will enter the storage room to eat a bit of food. I've half a mind the next time if she noses in a bit farther to just push her in with the kennel door. I've got a desk for sale out there and wi-fi, so I can work out there, and a sofa where I can sit...
Hi, all. it's been a while since I've been on The Cat Site. When I first joined this site back in 2014, I had a pregnant stray and you all gave me wonderful advice. I still have the cat, but all her kittens were adopted back then. Now, for the first time in YEARS, I've got another pregnant...
I watch his breathing and for any signs of lethargy. He behaves like any other kitten...running and playing, getting into mischief, but he eats about twice as much. He tires a bit easier and does not like to be picked up.
Euthanasia isn't on the table now, and I'm glad. I had to have my FIV+ cat I'd had for five years inside euthanized in April - he was very ill and would not recover and he was clearly dying. I had to have a geriatric carport kitty (15) for whom I've cared for seven years after she was abandoned...
My nine-month old rescue, Lord Chesterfield of Chocolate, was hit by a car two months ago and wound up on my sidewalk, which is how I ended up with him. At the time, he had a broken jaw and head trauma and was in such bad shape the vets didn't think he would make it. I was told of the...
@Gunter Welcome to The Cat Site. This forum is a wealth of information. I agree with what Tabby Tom advised. I've found food and being able to see what's going on in the house from the kennel is a good way to establish a connection with you and his new environment. I've also been known to put a...
LOL! The funny thing is when I named the pair, I didn't realized that they would have the demeanors of their namesakes. Qwill is rather stout and stoic, and vocal when he has to be, along with a bit jealous and demanding. McNally is very playful and social. Had McNally been female, I would have...
@strider rose, my photo is an older photo, but I was down low and to the side of my cat who was sitting on a cedar chest in the guest room.. She happened to look up and reach toward the light coming from the window.
