    How to know if someone’s caring for a feral?

    Good idea! I’m definitely going to start putting out the food in the mornings before I leave for work and then pick up before it gets dark. Hopefully he or she will figure out where the food is! Thank you! QUOTE="di and bob, post: 5745661, member: 53351"] Yes, if you are worried about attracting...

    How to know if someone’s caring for a feral?

    Yes, if you are worried about attracting wildlife, pick up the food at night. Cats very quickly learn when you set out food if you do it at the same time. i would start by getting her used to eating from you, then slowly move the food nearer to your house. You could get a large plastic dog...

    I hate winter for these guys

    I just kept my ferals overnight in my bathroom, released them the next day. There were 6 of them, and all recovered fine. The 15 week old kittens should be OK until spring , but they can come into heat as soon as 5 months. you might try to spay the females at least. What you have for winter...

    pre-built cat shelter?

    ...food bowls too! I use the collapsible cat shelters with the heat pads in them for my farm cats, they work great. They are on Amazon, i find them under K&H heated cat huts. They are about 64.00 a piece. For years I just used an insulated dog house with a heated pad in it when I didn't have too...

    Feral in my garage

    You may not have followed my Oscar''s saga. He is in a unheated shed but the shed has carpeting, a window, a couch, carpeted platforms and a sleeping loft.

    Feral in my garage

    A heated cat hut is fine, I have used them for years. It gets down to 15F below zero here. My huts are in a garage though.

    Bathrooms

    Neither did we! Living in London after the war, there was a shortage of housing. My parents moved into a "flat", which was simply the upstairs part of a small one-family house. The existing bathroom had been turned into a kitchen; the tiny room with a WC was halfway up the stairs (probably...

    Panther has a broken femer!

    Thanks so much for the update, it's always good to get good news! He looks adorable in his Mohawk! Your outside cat is even more spoiled than mine. Mine have heated huts in the garage, 4 of them, with an extra one in case of company.

    Ideas for aggressive stray

    Is your cat tent heated,plugged in? We have brutal winters here but I have heat pads in each of my huts and the cats stay toasty warm. if you had a heat mat he should be fine in the garage.

    Cat not coming home

    Children often upset cats, through no fault of their own. They are too loud, move too quickly, and are too unpredictable, especially for a sensitive cat. I would build him a shelter outside, if he persists into the winter there are several heated huts on Amazon that would do nicely. My ferals...

    I feel like i let my feral cats down

    I have gone through the same heartbreak with my dumped strays and ferals. Most found lying on your busy road, but some killed by coyotes and dogs. Of course, it hurts, they each have their own little personalities and it is soul-shattering to think after their hard life, it ends this way...

    My cats are always bored

    Mine are the same way. I often worry about it too. I think what really helps is to keep all the toys 'fresh'. What I mean by that is to hide some of them for a month or two and then bring them back out. I keep their small stuffed toys in a plastic bag filled with catnip. It helps to stay away...

    What to do?

    First of all, after going outside or having any interaction with the stray cat at all, simply wash your hands when you come back in and that should cut down the chances of your cat catching anything by a lot. if you hadn't started feeding it chances are the little one would have died, especially...

    Kitty won't stay inside

    I think he thinks of them as an invasion too. Cats don't like intruders even if they are cute kittens, and I'm sure they overwhelm him with their constant jumpimg and moving. if you are getting them homes, he will settle as soon as you do, if you are keeping them, you will have to do...
