I have been feeding her for 2 years. She has already had one litter of kittens. I have a trap out for her, and she is now going half-way into the trap to eat her food. So I should eventually be able to get her to go all the way in. She is basically MY cat. I trapped her and her three siblings 2 years ago where I work. I brought them home to my garage to get them out of the cold, but she escaped. If I do catch her, what is the best way to socialize her. Keep this in mind: I refuse to release her back into the wild. She is MY cat, and I am a renter. I'll be darned if I am going to move from her, and leave her behind. So once I catch her, she is done being outdoors. But I just don't know how to socialize her. I can't put her in the garage because there are strays that sleep in my garage, and the strays have 24/7 access to the outdoors via a pet door. I can hardly keep her in my apartment because I already have 3 cats of my own living indoors, and recently took on a roommate who is not a cat lover. He tolerates them. But never interacts with him or shows any interest. About the only thing I can think of is to put her in a large kennel inside my bedroom, but that doesn't seem right. Is there any other options? She is about 2 1/2 years old. Thanks.
