I had been feeding a young cat since last June...it is now November. I successfully trapped her in a cage borrowed from my humane society. I had a carpenter come in and build a big floor to ceiling cage about 5' x 5'.
I took the kitty to the welfare league to be checked out - shots - check for spaying to find that she is already spayed. Brought her home and let her loose in the cage. She is eating well and using a litter box.
I have 3 other cats. I have kept them away from her until she get acclimated. She has now been in the cage for a week. She has come out from hiding behind the carrier on the floor and lays on the top shelf. When I go in to check on her she just stairs at me. She meows loudly for short periods of time now and then.
I would like to spend more time with her but I work 3 days a week and her cage is in the basement while I spend most of my time upstairs.
When should I let my 3 kitties in to meet her? The gage on the cage is 1/2" so they will be able to see each other but not touch each other.
Am I doing this right? Is there something that I am doing wrong?
Thanks for any directives.
