I am also new-ish to this site. I am so happy I found it. Everyone has been kind and very knowledgeable. Bookmark it. It comes in handy often! On to the subject at hand: I've used US Revolution and Canadian Revolution. They have worked equally well on my cats. I have three, so the savings really...

Thank you for you're response. My neighbor and I both looked after him. We finally agreed to release him in the middke of February. We we're hoping the weather would've broken soon after but it didn't. We had three more Nor'easters and more snow. My neighbor purchase one of those feral villas...

Actually he was found about eight blocks from where I live, so not too far away. I was thinking the same thing about no one caring for him or feeding him in the area we found him. I kind of amazed that the cat approached my neighbor. He was either freezing or thought he recognized him. We can...

I agree. Thank you.

If I set up an outside shelter for him, then release him, is there a chance he'd stay? I don't know if it's better to return him to where we found him (familiar surroundings, possible support system) or release him where my neighbors and I live and him not coming back or able to find food/shelter.

I have had a Feliway plug in from the start.

I've sat with him over the past two weeks, spoken to him in a soft voice. He was a little more tolerant of me when he wasn't feeling well. Now that he's feeling better, he is back to hissing and swatting at me. Then again, I'm the person who took him to the vet, not once but twice.

My neighbors found Mugsy about two weeks ago. I said I'd keep him in my spare room until the weather got a little better. The night my neighbors found him, it was 5°F. Shortly after I got him situated in the spare room, I noticed he had a bad upper respiratory infection, an ear infection,fleas...

I wish I found this article two weeks ago, but better late than never! A feral/stray approached my neighbors about two weeks ago, when it was well below freezing temps outside. They werea able to pick him up get him into his car, then into a crate. Neighbors called me, so I decided to hold him...

Lol. I don't have a spare bathroom. My house is very small. He is in the spare bedroom in a very large crate. I cannot afford a 4th cat. I've already spent $300 on the stray. It's been two weeks and he won't look at me or come out of his covered bed. I've sat on the floor, talked to him softly...

I think I just need someone to tell me it's ok to return a cat I found two weeks ago. I think I have done all I can for him. l'm almost positive he is feral. His ear is tipped, he is neutered. He approx 8-9 yrs old weighs a little over eight lbs. The vet said most of his teeth were surgically...
