    Caring For Ferral After Neutering

    Thanks guys for all the posts. Im just now getting back to replying. I kept Rocky indoors overnight. Kept him in his carrier for a good part of the time, but let him out twice so that he could get his sea legs. I made sure he was drinking and I fed him the next morning. He did great! He...

    Igloo Houses For Cats

    We've had these ferrals for about 2 1/2 years now...all spayed/neutered. They are actually pretty domesticated, so I suppose they arent "true" ferrals. We had many more at first, but then had stray dogs issues, which reduced our numbers, also some were adopted out prior. Eventually had the...

    post spay care, indoor vs outdoor

    I just had my male ferral neutered..the vet only recommended that I keep him in the house overnight. The main reason being that he had anesthia (sp?) and wouldnt be up to defending himself outside if approached by another cat. I let him out in the house for a bit (hes not totally ferral) just...

    I saw a post here last winter in regard to something you could put in the ferrals sleep area that they could lie on to help them retain body heat.

    Kittens meowing a lot.

    Ha! I had one that did that....meowed constantly...so I decided to call her Crybaby....she is now around two and has not quit. You know these guys all have their own personality and I wouldnt think nothing of it as long as the kitten seems to be in good health and momma there is attending her/him.
