They are keeping the cat away from the dogs, which is good. I guess I've had my mind made up on this one from the beginning but would rather have not shown it. I just have this thing with helpless animals. Jeez, I can't even stand it when my hard lived, winter hardened, fended for themselves...
Yes, they have 2 dogs upstairs. The basement is semi finished. The previous family used it as a rec room. The kitten is very young,& it eats kitten food. It does get some attention but husband and wife work, small child in school. That seems like lots of alone time. I would gladly take...
I know someone that found a kitten. she has put it in her basement with food, water etc. The kitten has interaction with the family a few times a day...
How long would you think that the kitten should stay somewhat isolated before it starts to have an effect on it's overall health...
Thanks...Yup, not so feral anymore. It took about a year to get this far. Now, he just follows me around making noises...meows, chirps & purrs.
thanks again
I have a not-so-feral-anymore male cat. He's part of a colony I care for. Recently he's taken to hooking both front claws into my leg, and looking like he's about to use me as a scratching post. Is this common?
It's not an aggressive move because when I discourage it he just rubs against me...
For 2 years I didn't know these cats were in the woods. Very elusive.
I saw tracks in the snow and put food out. One came and then the rest. 7 of them. After 6-7 months they have become trusting. Now I have 7 cats.
Someone has had them trapped neutered spayed released. They have shelters...
I have an old feral male ( or long time stray)and it's taken about 7 months to gain his trust. He started to venture inside the house if I left the door propped open. Now he likes to come in and stay a while.
Now that it's getting cold I was wondering if letting him inside, where it's warm...
