How do cats react when the banks of the local river break, it's pouring with rain and their shelter is filling up with dirty water? Three cats are missing. It's not one of the feeding areas which I am responsible for but, it was in my opinion, the shelter's best example of how to feed and protect ferals. The feeding area is fenced but not too high so that cats could get out if they wanted to. The cat house is a full size garden house with 2 entrances. But now the whole area is under dirty, swirling water. The table is floating and being thrashed against the windows by the current. One cat has been located on higher ground but others are missing. Police and the fire brigade are in the area but their concerns are for the safety of the local people and their houses.
Has anyone any idea how cats would react? Would they stay in their "safe" house and be drowned? The cat who escaped was the latest arrival at the colony and could have just been using the feeding station to get an extra meal.
