    Outside/inside cat transition inside only cat

    Hi there. I recently moved and changed my cats from outside/inside cats to inside only. They have a large catio with grass and some flowers outside so that they aren't completely cut off from the world. While my one cat seems to have adapted quite nicely, the other still howls in front of the...

    Cat language

    Hello. I was wondering about communication I receive from the cat that is living on my roof or stuck on it. It is inquisitive about my movements when outside, but I have noticed that every time I speak to it, it pulls its ears to the side and down somewhat then starts quietly chattering - almost...

    Young feral on my roof

    Hi there. I don't think she's in trouble as such. She's kind of quiet for most of the day and at times I would hear her meow. I have led her to the place where I would imagine she could easily jump off and even made a little walkway for her but as far as I know she hasn't come down. I have...

    Young feral on my roof

    Hello! About three days ago I realised that I have a cat on my roof - she can also go into the roof. She sounds distressed and I don't know whether she can get down. There are two, maybe three areas where it can get down but I thought that maybe it lacks confidence? I don't want to start feeding...

    Tamed stray walkabout

    Thank you for the words of encouragement. We don't live in the same area, he's been living in his nee place for five months now, four of which he has been outside. He has gone on exploratory trips before but never for longer than a few hours. He's now been gone for almost 24...and it's winter to...

    Tamed stray walkabout

    Hello. I'm hoping for some reassurance. I have tamed a stray and he's comfortably been living in my house with his new family. He didn't come home last night and now has me very worried. Do they still go on walkabouts even though they are spayed and tamed? He's about two years old and has been...

    Bullying cat

    Hello. I desperately need help. I have a bottle baby (3/f), a feral rescued at 3 months (now 2/f) and have recently added a stray to the pack (3/m). My bottle baby has turned into the worst bully - when the other two hear her bell they take off to hide under a table or bush. The 2/f seems to...

    Bottle babies and their language

    Just out of curiosity, do bottle babies understand the "language" of other cats? My bottle baby is almsot three, she does the chatter when she sees a bird and talks back when she's in trouble, but she doesn't get on with my two rescues. The most recent rescue is very vocal in friendly chirps...

    2yr old feral boy

    Thank you for your reply. Yes, he's been to the vet and neutered and tested. I would love to see some articles and videos. Am struggling with my other feral girl and my bottle baby...they cannot seem to get along and it's causing great frustration as I have to seperate them when we go to bed. My...

    2yr old feral boy

    Hi there. I'm curious about the feral I am taming. As I'm typing, he's trying to get to my hands for a scratch, purring wonderfully. We have made a lot of progress in three weeks. His body language baffles me...he comes willingly for a scratch, sits with me, lies with me and allows me to touch...

    Ideas on catching feral?

    Hi there. I'm trying to catch a feral at my dad's house. My dad recently passed away and had 3 ferals, 2 of which have disappeared. 1 has stayed behind and from what I can tell, relies on the food I have been putting down for him. He's afraid of people, but knows us so comes quite close. I have...

    Do cats ever stop roaming?

    No, not the 4 month old...my 2 year old actually. She was hand raised and is spayed, which is why I'm surprised and worried. The last cat I had who roamed came home to die after being poisoned :(

    Do cats ever stop roaming?

    Hi there. I'm totally being an obsessive mommy but was wondering whether cats ever stop roaming? My baby has been disappearing for a few hours some days, something she's never done before...it completely stresses me out! Thank you :)

    4 month feral taming

    A quick update on the kitten and a request for advice.. So it's been 4 weeks and kitty now eats next to me with my hand resting next to her. She is also starting to show some interest when I enter the room and I've seen that she's lying outside her safe space most afternoons. She also plays...

    4 month feral taming

    Good morning. I have watched the videos for taming a 4 month, but am unclear about something. I have determined that she's using the litterbox and eating when food is left. I have decided to start the tough love phase and giving food only when I'm in the room to encourage her to come out when...

    4 month feral taming

    Thanks Karen. My sister just doesn't have the patience to socialize a kitten, if I go on the amount of time I've put in and the results so far. She should be fine once kitty is ok with people. I thought to get kitty used to me first before introducing her to other people but don't know that...

    4 month feral taming

    Hi there. I'm trying to tame a 4 month old and believe we've made some progress. She came out of her hiding space for a brief second to see what I was doing when I cleaned her litterbox - and this after only 4 days! I already love her to pieces but have a concern. I'm actually taming her for...
