Thank you! I worry sick like you. It's not that warm so my husband cut fiberglass and I wrap it up during rain or when it snows.
They aren't happy right now with the relocation but I hope they will be soon. I'm going to open the door in 2 weeks so they can roam.
I feel so bad for them right...
I worry sick about my ferals too. I just had to relocate them to my backyard. This is the 2nd week in their catio. Here's a pic. I also have heated beds in it. Is 20 watts hot enough? Mine too only heats to their body temp when the lay on it. I just hope they will be warm enough. It got 25 the...
I appreciate your feedback and I'm sorry if you were getting responses from others. I'm not used to this website yet so I haven't seen the responses as of yet. I've been fighting this decision for a few years now. Long story short. They were at my work living there. I trapped them both and were...
Thank you. We ended up added a floor and shimming it under the catio. The were frightened. I haven't seen them come out since. The night before was the storm so they have been in the for a couple of days. The firs few days they just seemed exhausted and slept. But now, I see stress in their...
Hi there,
I finally trapped my feral and I need to get some guidance for when I bring her home from her doctors appointment tomorrow.
I have a catio being put up in my backyard. When I bring her home, it will be dark and I''m not sure if i should put her in her catio until I trap her mama...
I dropped trapped her! She is with me now. I'm bringing her in the doctors tomorrow. They couldn't see her today. Can you help me with the relocation part now or are you not experienced with that?
Btw, she is about 7 years old. Her mama is probably 8 years old. Baby loves Mama but Mama doesn't love Baby so much. I think she toloerates her. I definatly want to bring Mama with her for company. I have to trap mama soon.
I got her!! Thank God!! I dropped trapped her. She is in the trap in my garage right now. I feel horible because i can't get her to the Drs until tomorrow am. When she comes out of the doctors, should I put her in the big catio or should I keep her in my garage until I trap her mama? It's...
Hi there, I put just wet food in the trap but I've trapped her about 4 times now. She isn't fallen for it anymore. I'm going to try to grab her and put her in a carrier. Going there tonight. I can't see her suffer like this anymore.
I will pay her to come help me. I live in Mt Airy MD. Would you be so kind to ask her if she is willing? I could really use the help. I'm loosing my wits. I've been trying to trap her for months.
Hmmmm.......that is an idea. Ok. I think i know someonen who has a dog crate. Thank you and you helped me with my decision to not try to catch her with a net. Someone was talking to me and saying i could do it but I never did it before and it's a one shot deal, like you said. thank you! I'll...
Thank you so much! I'm having a hard time trapping Baby. She is so sick scratching allllll the time. I look at her and cry. She won't go in the droptrap and so i have a trap set up unset and have been putting food in it. I have a lady going there once a day to put food in the trap but she hasn't...
Yeah, it's a drain....not exactly a pipe. But that was a great idea. And i tried the fried chicken. She doesn't like it!! Can you imagine? I'm doing some heavy praying about this. Ugh.
Ok, thanks for all the info...this really helps. Just ordered my catio. I am going to start a new thread on trapping because she will not go into the trap. I've starved her 5 days in a row on two separate occasions trying to drop trap her. she won't go near it. I have a trap unset that is up...
Ok, we will see if they go in. I have to trap her first. I've been trying for months. I even took all the food away for 5 days two separate occasions in hopes to trap but she will not go into a drop trap or the other trap. I have a trap unset right now where we are putting the food in there in...
This helps a lot. What is a vapor barrier? I live in Maryland and sometimes we get a lot of snow and sometimes we don't. I'm taking them from an area where they go in the drain a lot. I'm afraid they will be colder her after I relocate them. Do you think they will go into small house with the...
