Thanks for the replies -- how long do you think it would make sense to keep her separated in her own enclosed area? It makes sense why she should be in an enclosed space while she adjusts!
we have a side yard area, that's separate from where the other cats hang out, but it's not totally enclosed...there's a 4-5 foot high chainlink fence on one side and a more open entrance on the street side. do you think if we set up her current bed there that might serve as a decent catio?
not really :/ she also is very much an outdoor cat and has never lived inside for any length of time (other than to just come in and say hello or take refuge from the cold for an evening).
Does anyone here have any ideas about how to introduce one mostly-outdoor block cat to a new block that already has a group of cats living on it? I moved recently and learned that the block kitty on my old block is no longer welcome to live under the front steps of my old building. I'd like to...
