Hi,
There are two, or possibly three stray cats that spend a lot of time in my yard. Most nights I hear crying, and occasionally what clearly sounds like altercations with another animal.. I haven't gotten very close yet but one looks like an orange tabby with an owner's collar and appears healthy. The one I'm more focused on is possibly marbled black and orange.
I have my own, 18-year old cat.. If I can somehow get the stray inside, will my cat be safe? I would probably put the stray in the laundry room, which can be closed off from the rest of the house.
A no-kill shelter that I've visited before was mentioned to me.. What would the appropriate course of action be if I can get the cat inside? It would likely have to spend a little bit of time here because I'll have to rely on someone else for a ride.
Also, any tips for gaining a stray's trust? I have wet and dry food and extra litter box and carrier... Thank you for any assistance.
