I'm freaking out, panic attack!
I live in Thiells NY and at 5:30 a.m i heard this weird sound, it woke me up. I thought it was our 2 cats fighting or one had a hairball. I walk downstairs and see one cat, not the other. I look out back and there was a fox or a coyote. I think it was a fox. My one cat was watching out the window and they both acted strange, and were scared.
I got so nervous bc we have 1 outdoor cat that is 3 years old and we are bringing him in soon. Just need money for getting him fixed and shots and get the room in place
This fox, was on our deck making wierd noise and looking under our deck and kept looking under deck. Our outdoor cat has a house on our deck and goes under the deck alot. I freaked bc i didnt know if the fox injured our cat so I went out back and tried to scare it off. Finally left and few seconds later our cat came on deck from under our deck. Im afraid the fox will come back and our cat will get bitten or worse. Say prayers for Roz please and me bc im so scared.
Any advice on bringing a 3yr d, very afraid feral. The 2 inside are his brothers. They are 2 and have been inside dec 2018. Roz was aggressive when they use to hang out. He isnt fixed. How do we know if he will be aggressive towards our 2 cats. How do we slowly get them near each other. We have a room and thought to take the door off and put a screen door so they can see each other and smell.

) I'd get him in right away. Especially since you've already got a room he can have to himself as he's socialized into the family!! Which is wonderful!!!!!!!!! I can write more later that's more specific if need be, but the biggest key on socializing him with your current guys is SLOW SLOW SLOW and SLOWER!!!!! Most people jump the gun with introduces, feeding and playing - - -- they have one good encounter (like a head butt or two at the screen door) and think it's time to let the new one out full time.. but it's SO much harder to "put the genie back in the bottle" that I'd keep them apart for quite a bit, doing very slow introductions. The screen door is an excellent way to help with slow intros - - -we do that, and have had alot of success. But we start with the door closed for several days, so that they can sniff each other under it, etc. We also "scent swap" - - putting a few things with your new guy that your original guys have slept on (blanket, cat bed, etc.), and vice versa. We then move to feeding each side closer and closer to the (closed) door...and when all can eat right up next to the door without growling, etc., we fix the door so it cant open more than an inch - - just enough to get noses up to for good sniffing! If that goes well, in a few days we open the door enough that they can alllllmmmmmooost get their paws but not quite. Again - if all's well for a few days - - I'd then open the screen door all of the way. Again - slow slow slow. Each step should take at least a few days!
