I have used Kilz on both wood and concrete subfloors and it worked well. It's a special kind of paint primer thingy (for lack of a better word ). Look for their website as they have more than one product but I know at least one of them specifically mentions covering up urine odor.
What I did...
I don't have any advice about the diarrhea, but I will say that the socialization process can be sloooow.
I read somewhere that it takes, on average, 3 weeks to socialize an 8 week old feral kitten. Well, I rescued three feral kittens this summer and my experience has been: One (the only...
Wow, you are really doing right by these kitties, Deepa!! I'm sorry that a couple of the kittens went missing, but awesome that you took in Will (great names, BTW.) Keep up the good work.
Nope, not nuts!! I have a similar situation, and I'm agonizing over keeping my TWO feral kittens (a third one is already adopted out, thank goodness). I don't have to worry about future children, but I have two of my own cats, one who is elderly and not in good health, plus a big dog. But you...
We've been kind of hoping that Fluff will follow Woody's lead and figure out that we're "safe". Not happening yet, but I think I do notice her letting down her guard a little more. I did, one time, get her to purr. It was when they were still in their small room; she was up on a ledge and I...
Thank you both SO MUCH for all the suggestions!!
The kittens were spayed/neutered 3 weeks ago, so THAT'S out of the way! And yes, I can easily get them to come out for food and play. In fact, the male (we named him Woodstock) is quite social, usually greets me when I go downstairs, and...
A little background: Two months ago, I trapped 3 feral kittens that were born under my deck. They were about 8 weeks old at the time. I brought them in and put them in a small room in my basement - the only doable room; this has been the hottest summer on record in Denver; I have no a/c; and...
Wow, I'm no expert but that sounds more like an abandoned cat who's been on her own for a while to me. I don't think a truly feral cat would come into your house. Bless you for wanting to take her in and good luck.
Oh! The little siamese is doing quite well, and my friend has found her a home. She really needed to be separated and worked on alone as I could tell after a couple of weeks that she was actually regressing instead of progressing. She's supposed to go to her new home on Sunday or Monday. ...
I just found this site surfing the internet for more information on taming feral kittens, and I must say I'm impressed.
I'm a seasoned message board user; have been active on a couple of diabetic cat message boards, Las Vegas boards, and one all about Playa del Carmen, Mexico (a favorite...
