    Should I bring my two ferals in and try to socialize them?

    Hi Ondine, Thanks for this. Yes, we would put them in our spare room and know that it would take a very long time for them to be comfortable, if ever, and don't expect them to ever be like our two other cats. It's just so risky as I know they will be so stressed out. I'm worried about how in the...

    Should I bring my two ferals in and try to socialize them?

    Hi there, I have been feeding two ferals in an alley about 5 minutes away from my house for two years now. We feed them every night and put proper shelters down in the winter. We took in one of the kittens two years ago who was young enough to be socialized. These other two have become used to...

    Are feral cats with shelters and food OK in winter? I worry too much on cold Canadian winter nights!

The garden center is closed for the winter so there is no one there to help. I am going to ask if there is any...

    Are feral cats with shelters and food OK in winter? I worry too much on cold Canadian winter nights!

    Hi everyone, Thanks so much for all of your replies, I really appreciate the help. The thing is, I don't have anywhere ideal to put the cat shelters. The cats mostly live in two backyards and the owners will not allow shelters back there. BUT the garden centre on the other side of the alley does...

    Are feral cats with shelters and food OK in winter? I worry too much on cold Canadian winter nights!

    Hi there, I just returned from feeding my two ferals who I feed in an alley about five mins from my house. My husband and I have been feeding them for almost two years. We trapped, neutered and released the two adults and took in the kittens, one of which we have. Just this summer the female has...
