    Feral cat with big chunk of hair hanging

    I can’t get close to him, but I’m so baffled as to why his chest hair looks like this?! It almost looks like someone took an electric razor and stopped mid way. Anyone know what this could be? I hope his skin isn’t hurt. I’ve included some pictures. Sorry they aren’t the best. Possibly cat fight?

    Drop Trap

    Hi everyone, Thank you SO much for the helpful replies. I am so upset. I had the drop trap set and he was in there and as soon as I pulled it he ran out! He is a smart one:( Now I’m worried that I traumatized him and he won’t ever go back in. Not sure what to do. I will keep trying. He is eating...

    Drop Trap

    Monday I have an appointment to take in one of my ferals who has a gash on his face and the inside of his ear is black and red. I have to trap him tomorrow night. I don’t think he will go in a regular trap (he’s been trapped before.) so I think I’m going to have to use my drop trap (which I’ve...

    Trapping Difficult Sick Feral Help!!

    And yes he is a her now! I thought it was a male the whole time. The humane society told me on the phone it was a girl then I went to get her and they backtracked and said male! Now the cat hospital is telling me female! Vet said she has a scar on her belly like it was a spray surgery. But the...

    Trapping Difficult Sick Feral Help!!

    Update on feral kitty. She went to the cat hospital yesterday. It was a drop off appointment so I talked to the vet on the phone. I let them take blood and the results are in so the vet is supposed to call me tonight about the results. They also sedated her and bathed her. Vet was worried about...

    Kflowers-You’re right. I was going to say it’s not fair to judge how he will act there. It must be so terrifying for them.:sniffle:I am just going to take it slow & let him have his space & go from there.

    Kflowers-That is really good to hear! He hasn’t shown any aggression towards me at all. It’ll be interesting to see how he acts when I take him to the cat hospital.:eek3: Avery- No, I haven’t named him yet. Any suggestions?!

    Trapping Difficult Sick Feral Help!!

    Thank you everyone! I really hope he will be a good fit for my house. He was trapped in a drop trap then I put the regular trap against the drop trap door and he went in there with me poking a stick to get him in. So I took him there in the regular trap. After he got treated I brought him home...

    Can you tell I’m now to this site? Lol. It’s 2am here. I just wanted to add the invoice from humane society. He also was microchipped. I swear he already was! Glad they checked that!

    Trapping Difficult Sick Feral Help!!

    Thanks for the super nice reply’s everyone! So I took him to the Humane Society because I heard they have a low cost medical program. I get there and was told they really only do TNR or treatment if the cat is really, really sick. The front lady at the desk said the vet might not even do...

    Trapping Difficult Sick Feral Help!!

    I got him! Thank you everyone, you are all amazing people!! Off to the vet tomorrow morning. My rescue lady gave me the brand Muse by Purina Chicken & Shrimp and I made a little trail on top of the fence down to the drop trap and it worked! That was the first time I’ve seen him eat in days. I...

    Trapping Difficult Sick Feral Help!!

    Thank you! I will leave him alone. I don’t see him anymore so hopefully he will come back. He almost always does. That’s exactly what I was thinking. He keeps coming back and stays for hours on end so I think it’s a cry for help. She’s at work right now so it’ll be a few hours it is only 12pm...

    Trapping Difficult Sick Feral Help!!

    Thank you everyone. He isn’t food motivated. I don’t think he’s eaten in 3 or more days which isn’t good at all:( I put some chicken on the fence and it looked like he wanted to eat it but I couldn’t tell if he actually was because I’m trying to keep my distance. I hope he surrenders eventually...

    Trapping Difficult Sick Feral Help!!

    Thank you everyone. He isn’t falling for my drop trap. I’m considering later to have my rescue friend come over and she if she can grab him. She was about to yesterday. That might be my only option now but it terrifies me. He’s never shown aggression, just skittish. My heart is breaking.
