Last week I posted about my two feral girls in my enclosure, I think a small step has been made and I am so thrilled, yesterday I wanted to put fresh straw in the Feralvilla shelter that they are constantly in. I carefully lifted the lid, talked softly to them as I always do, they both went...

I have posted many times about a feral colony I inherited a few years ago. I had to relocate the last 2 females, mother and daughter, to an enclosure in my yard. I was forced to move them by a very nasty neighbor. I did not want to just relocate and release to my yard as their previous...

My daughter's cat,  Penny, who was 6 years old and never sick one day passed away last night.  It was so sudden,  we are all in a state of shock.   She was an inside only cat, but would go outside for a few minutes a day with my daughter.  They went out last evening,  she was in the yard,  my...

My rescued ferals seem to have upper respiratory issues. I cannot get them into a carrier to go to the vet. I have been giving them Clavamox when I can get them. They are avoiding me now. I have a vaporizer running in the room too. Someone told me that it is like us having a cold and it...

As I have posted before,  I inherited a feral colony in November.  Of the 8 kittens and young cats that I brought in to socialize,  3 kittens are in wonderful homes and 3 of the older kittens will be going to their forever homes this summer.  They are all adjusting very well.  I put a screen on...

Today I was able to catch the black cat, he is not neutered but friendly. I was actually able to pick him up and put him into a carrier. I took him to my vet, he tested negative and has a broken tooth which will be taken care of when he is neutered tomorrow. He did not have a wound like I...

I am very discouraged tonight.  Of the colony I "inherited" in November, most have been brought inside and are doing really well.  The last of the youngest kittens goes to her new home tomorrow.  The four older kittens are really progressing, I am petting three of them and they are enjoying life...

About two months ago,  I was asked if I would take over a colony of cats.  The caretaker was moving and the cats lived in her yard.  They were all trapped and spayed/neutered.  They ranged in ages.  I immediately brought in the four youngest kittens, they were about 3 to 4 months old.  Within...

About five or six weeks ago I was contacted by a TNR group about a colony of cats that needed a caretaker as the woman who fed them was moving. None were spayed or neutered, but the organization was wonderful in trapping them. There were 11 in all. Four of them were about 10 weeks old and...

I currently have two situations going on and would appreciate some advice. The first one is about 2 strays I have been caring for since late July. Both males, one has already been trapped and neutered. The other male avoided the trap but was beginning to let me pick him up and pet him. I was...

Yesterday I brought home a feral mom cat, her kittens have been caught already. I picked her up from the spay clinic and brought her to my house for a few days before I return her. She will be well taken care of and her caretaker would love to eventually bring her inside. She was fine, I...

I hope someone here has some advice. My oldest cat, Isabelle is 11 years old. Very healthy until 2 weeks ago. I noticed her vomiting, watched her the rest of the day and took her to the vet the next day. She would not eat. They examined her, found nothing and sent her home. She still would...

Early in December I was asked to foster a feral kitten, about 7 months old. Her mom wandered into an established feral colony and had 5 kittens. The mom was trapped and spayed and released. Three of the kittens were caught early on, in July I believe, and another one around the end of August...

This is so unbelievable I am still in shock. After only 2 days back at the new office, Zachary escaped from the front door, a plumber was leaving and he shot out past him. He ran into the street, my son in law ran out into the street after him and actually stopped traffic, a car slowed down...

I am praising God today!! Zach has returned!! I went to the old office today and there he was!! I could not believe it. It is about a 4 mile journey and he had to cross a busy road. I don't know how he did it, but I was praying for his safety and return and my prayers have been answered...

Last Monday, our office cat, Zachary got out and has not returned. He was only in the new place for about a week. I have spoken with the neighbors on either side, one is a home and one is a store. There is a junkyard beyond the hillside that he ran to, I spoke with a woman yesterday and...

Today, Zachary, our office cat got outside and is still missing. We have been feeding and caring for him for 2 years now. After several unsuccessful attempts to trap him, we just took our time and he eventually warmed up to us and moved inside in January. He has been very happy inside. We...

I have been caring for a stray cat for almost 2 years now. He first appeared at my husband's office and stayed in the woods. We had several attempts at trapping him, he even broke out of a drop trap, but since January he has been inside. Now he is fine, he loves attention and is content to...

I was recently told about Bach's Remedies and am going to start using them on my cats. I am putting the drops in water but am wondering what is the best way to actually give them to the cats. I have heard to put the drops on the pads of the paws. What do you do?

I have been feeding a feral cat since about June, she comes on to my porch every night to eat. I rarely see her but I know it is her that has been coming to eat. I have a shelter for her to use but she does not. I knew that she had 3 kittens in June, my neighbor thought that they were...
