Hello! A neighborhood stray that has been around at least 7 years (as long as I have lived in my house) decided my garage was worthy of calling home (I leave the door raised a bit for the strays to come in for warmies) . After a few weeks she decided she wanted some attention and pets, then...

We are now on day 2 of Rocky hanging out with me in the basement with unrestricted access. He is no longer fearful, no longer crying, crouching or trying to hide. If I go upstairs, he retreats to the open area that is closer to his laundry room and waits to make sure it’s me that’s coming...

I’ve decided to try using Solliquin treats to see if this will help with his anxiety issues. I’ve given him 1 each day for the last 2 mornings right after he’s eaten breakfast. After an hour I open his door and he has been exploring an area that can also be closed off, but is bigger and more...

Well Henry has found a new home! I’m so happy for him!

The new stray is a 4 paw declawed 😭😭, he’s very affectionate and is adjusting well to his new environment. But it’s evident that his paws bother him. How can I help this poor fellow and how can I tell if he’s in pain since cats are masters at disguising it? Ive always used the lightweight...

Well he seems to be settling in ok, he’s eating and has good litter box habits. My office is actually a combo office small kitchen and he seems to be happier on top of the kitchen cabinets. When I’m in the basement I open the door to the office and let him roam around and vice versa, if I’m in...

Awww what a handsome boy! Thank you for caring for him and for bringing him with you to your new home, he will adjust and be forever grateful that you include him in your family!

Well she is a he! Got him to the Vet; he’s healthy except some cruel person declawed him (imho it’s cruel) on all 4 paws, and he’s had no way to defend himself! He weighs 5.5 lbs and is about 6-7 years old. He got dose of revolution, a rabies and feline booster, he’s negative for anything and...

I was talking with a neighbor and she saw me and came running up to me and was rubbing all over and showing her belly and followed me to the garage door, so it took just a few attempts and I got her in the carrier with minimal resistance. She is now in the basement office and set up for the...

For the last few weeks I have seen a new cat come to feed on my porch. I can’t tell if she is young or old but she is super skinny and getting skinnier by the day. She always peeks inside when I open the door But keeps her distance, and today for the first time ever she came up and was...

Thank you for the feedback and suggestion, I tried hissing at him when he bit my foot the other day and it has no effect at all on him, he merely crouched down and hissed back. He bites, I hiss and we do it nearly every day, perhaps one day he will come to terms with me. He is what he is, and...

Thanks everyone for the positive feedback and I will work on not feeling so guilty about him being relegated to the laundry room. I will continue to bring him outside with me when I’m working so he can enjoy the sun and outdoors, I’m sure I look silly in shorts and boots but he seems to really...

No desire to play with ME, no amount of toys, prey play etc, he just stares at me like ”really??” I have a camera set up in the laundry room to see how he is doing all alone. I’ve watched him play with his toy mice, he runs around, his tail is straight up he’s rolling around happy etc. . I...

Sorry, it has been a chaotic few months! Rocky what can I say! I made the hard decision to go ahead and release him back outside because of his biting. He took off for a week, and came home, and he’s back in the laundry room without the dog crate, but he’s still a biter and I have to wear...

His abscess is now nearly completely healed over, and for the last 4 days I have given him free reign in the laundry room keeping the kennel door open and keeping his food and water in there. He’s has lost interest in wet food and despite some missing teeth, loves the dry food. He’s got zero...

after the adventure into my studio he was fearful of coming out of the kennel the next day, so I just let it be. The following day he was happy to come out into the cramped laundry room while I sat on the floor, all he did was pace and rub against me back and forth, very manic like, and then...

His abscess is almost healed, he keeps scatching the last little bit open so it’s slow. 1: My laundry room is small and his cage takes up most of the area in there, so perhaps not the place for one on one interactions. Once I’m sitting on the floor there really is no place for him to walk...

Calico, I do wear boots when I interact with him, he does dig in but because I’m wearing boots and a heavy long sleeve , so no skin break etc... I’m indifferent when I’m sitting with him. It’s the all out curl around and go to town on my feet, I merely sit, and he just rubs all over my feet...

What a handome moggie! Thank you for trying to help him! I’m sorry I don’t have any advice for you I just wanted to say thank you!

Rocky continues to heal, but our out of cage sessions are not good. When he comes out, all he wants to do is rub all over me and then in less than 2 minutes he attacks. Mind you, I am sitting on the floor, at his level and I spend a few minutes sitting and talking with him before I open the...
