congrats you must be so in love! black kittens are my fav! I love mine his name is Bear :) he looks little where did you get him?

To update: I did suspend my involvement due to needing to protect my only income. but I did employ help. my secretary came and trapped with the lady and her husband and she ended up adopting them out through a local agency. I gave her my biggest crate for use and it turns out she’s...

Hi. The problem of not going to the vet is if you don’t know what’s going on with the cat. The problem with going to the vet is the vet visit fee, getting all your animals UTD on vaccination if they aren’t, and providing stool samples for testing before dispensing any kind of treatment. I am...

I don’t be believe an actual program but i have heard privately of farmers accepting barn cats. TNR could be an option however I feel an actual home as kittens would be ideal even as indoor-outdoor.

UPDATE i have spoken with the lady who returned to work who had been feeding. she said she and her husband have traps and have trapped there before and would be willing to help. BUT it has always been undercover. NOW landscapers have been out and moved my dishes as i have been away and the...

yes everyone here has always been so helpful thank you for the support!

As I suspected, the shelter was less than helpful. they wanted to be sure i knew that they -and other shelters- were max capacity and would not be taking cats. they also do not have traps to lend. It is a dead end. I did reach out a while back to a further out shelter: same thing. basically...

Hi guys I have an update. Didn’t see the cats for a bit but did feed - they eventually ate more at night. then I roamed around the property and found a LOT of things- buckets weird shelters one had a tarp on it. I say weird bc I didn’t see a hole in any of them that would fit a kitty. they...

well i am back at it again with woodland kittens! there are three kittens and possibly mom in woods behind a shed. problem is it is not only private property but it is my work property my livelihood. does anyone understand regulations on this? the sad part is my work is near our local animal...

i second the crate training. we think these little buggers know exactly where to go.. well they can go anywhere in the wild and they need the extra time and training. also would train the other cats by putting them in an area with the boxes for a bit. obviously you are limited with the...

mine was doing the same, and i know it was how he gulped the dry food bc once he puked his wet but there were dry granules meaning the dry first was what did it. he's a fat boy. I started feeding on a baking sheet (i have too many cats to just put one layer over one small bowl) and it seems to...

PSA-sheba cuts in cans are gone off Chewy website--at least the multipacks! (they are phasing them out)

maybe why my cats don't like them!

Please grab more! We have such a problem in this area!!! No one around here seems to want "barn cats" :-(

Maybe you could dress up the garage to make it warmer/cooler? I'm not sure exactly what this would entail. Do you have a basement? Maybe they can live down there. It's a tough situation for everyone but i'm glad your mom is at least allowing their presence. It doesn't sound like she's onboard...

Please do not use cedar and please do read up on why! Try another type of litter as it is probably a sensitivity. These companies do put fragrances and chemicals in their litters. Try to find something hypoallergenic or limited ingredient.

I use trash bags and rig them to the litter genie, youtube it! You use up trash bags but you don't shell out for litter genie refills.

I also use this as my litter for 6 cats. I have huge litter boxes out of clear storage containers with no lids. I also have a few jumbo standard boxes. I use baking soda by the litter mats and on the very bottom of the boxes. I have two vacuums for the house plus a broom and vacuum dedicated...

I think it sounds good. I have 6 of my own in 1650 sq ft and they have four cat trees now and lots of space to be on their own. But they enjoy following me around the house (we are all upstairs. now we are all downstairs. ) Off limits are the laundry room and guest rooms as well as the guest...

When we realized we were going to be a "friend of ferrals," we located a few rescue agencies. One agency that showed promise basically said "you're on your own." Another never even returned our calls for advice and help. After getting the hang of rescuing these colony cats ourselves, it was...
