I appreciate your reply and sorry it took so long to return. Today was a bad day, where I caught them killing a bird who had actually become a friend. These birds return and nest in the same spot. They aren't cognizant of cat risks, only if a place seems hospitable for nesting. I put off making...
Hi everyone. I need advice. I have two inside cats, each originally feral, born under my porch (now very loving and domestic since I brought them in young). I paid to have both mothers TNR-ed. The first (several years ago) left and never returned. The second was released during the most brutal...
I usually use bleach and remove the cats from rooms. it dries quickly and doesn't form the same residual as an oil. But I used the pine sol since the area was wood flooring, It's very rainy and damp here. I'm afraid to wet the floor and not have it dry properly, but she also sleeps in that room...
I realize that this is an old thread, but I'm really worried. I found out about the Pine Sol yesterday when I searched to see if it killed ringworm on surfaces but saw instead that it could kill cats. I had washed the floors with it, no cats in rooms until it was dry. But I put a decent amount...

My feral kitten has really turned around and I was the same way as you. I felt that I had betrayed her trust and held her captive. She is really really happy now in her new digs. I don't want to think of it as Stockholm Syndrome. I think that after all is said and done, she seems to really like...
You did the right thing and don't blame yourself for not considering EVERYTHING. You thought of it quick enough. I hope that kitty gets better and that her parent has less stress.
Definitely get a tetanus shot. If ever bitten again, wash the wound out with iodine as quickly as possible, it is supposed to kill the rabies virus. However, this would be on the surface, and there is no way of knowing whether it entered into your system. It would be best if you could catch the...
So things are progressing. She is getting used to us. We can pick her up and pet her, but we kind of have to force it on her, and then she loves it and does baby meows. One of my older cats, who was/is kind of the baby was playing all cutesy and wanted to go in the room where the new kitten is...
