Good for you! Rascal sounds like he'd be happy hanging out with you outdoors, so, if he's over four months old, perhaps don't wait to fix him. Early spay/neuter has several benefits, including easier recovery. :)

What Aimee said. I concur!

I wouldn't necessarily arrive at the conclusion that it's herpes just because her eyelid is swollen and her nose runs. Could be a run-of-the-mill upper respiratory infection, worsened by stress. There is no real veterinary test for herpes, but, once she gets some antibiotics you can observe the...

If you see that others are feeding, seems you needn't put any more down. I know she's pregnant and she needs her calories, but, you have little hope of trapping if she has no incentive to take your bait. Ideally, you'd be able to lock the trap down so nobody'd take it, tie it open and feed ONLY...

Unless it's a really TNR-friendly town. yes, they kill virtually all ferals presented to animal control, so, I meant only that you should try to borrow a trap from them. The less they are involved, the better. If I am correct, you have the Toronto Feral Cat Coalition, Toronto at Rescue, Animal...

You are probably going to have to borrow a drop trap from the local TNR group. It is usually far more effective than a conventional trap. So, check into that, it'll save you and the cats much stress. If you have kittens to catch and you don't catch the queen at the same time, you can place two...

Also, I'd recommend that you find a way to address altering the feral population in your area, to decrease the chance of more poor sick or injured babies turning up. If her eyesight cannot be saved, there are blind cat rescue groups who may take her in, if you are able to tame her. But, let's...

Ideally, you would borrow a trap, get her to the low-cost, high-volume spay clinic and they would give (well, sell) you some antibiotics to give her if she'll have them, or, administer a shot of penicillin if she's too wild. It's a wonder drug and it probably would help her get well. A feral...

Aw. So sad. Half of kittens born outside die within the first year, so just focus on this one and as soon as you can get some hekp, get all of your cats fixed. Their quality of life will be so much better. it may help to find videos of bottle feeding so that you are sure to hold him properly...

I'm sorry to hear that the mother won't feed the babies. At this age, they must eat every 2-3 hours. If you can take her inside and get her to care for them, it certainly would be best for all, but, if that can't happen, it's good of you to take them in. It also means that you can sooner have...

Thank you so much! We will display it proudly.
