    Road trip out of state with recently transitioned to indoor cat

    By the way- I wound up keeping her in the hotel bathroom to be safest and I gave her 1 1/2 times the gabapentin dose before travel as well as at hotel that night to keep her less stressed and it was just enough for calmness. She took it fine crushed with a "Delectable" spoonful treat! So no...

    Road trip out of state with recently transitioned to indoor cat

    Thank you all for the great responses and ideas! I DO have a very large dog crate I can possibly put in the hotel room for her but really the bathroom would prob work just as well. Hiding in the hotel bed definitely scares me! HAHA We may try to tough it out and make in one day? but I would...

    Road trip out of state with recently transitioned to indoor cat

    Litter box questions for semi feral stray taken in

    Hi all- I have taken in a TNR cat into my home. She FINALLY did a BM in the litter box after 26 hours-Yay!-LOL- I have never owned a cat so not sure on certain things but do I remove the feces from box immediately or leave as a scent in the box to encourage to go again later? Not sure if they...

    Outdoor to Indoor litter box ideas

    Thanks for all the advice! I have had the pellet box near the exit of my house already and tried putting her in it many times with no luck and she has no interest in it but has never been forced to stay so long that it becomes urgent. This is where I'm not sure if a smaller area would help with...

    Outdoor to Indoor litter box ideas

    Hi- I have an approx 7 year old stray(TNR) that adopted me and I am about to transition her to indoor only and try to teach her to use a litter box is the first big step! I purchased Dr E's attract litter- should I start with just using this or instead use outside sources such as dirt, mulch...
