Sweet Pea must have put the word out there. About three weeks ago one evening the twins were really agitated at the kitchen windows. When we went to check them, we saw a small kitty on our porch. It is definitely a girl and a petite one, medium coat, a mix between tortie, calico and tabby with white socks. She looked very very skinny with very unkept coat and there was this terrible anguish in her eyes. She moved in front of our front door and sat there glued to it for a very long time. Then she moved to our back patio. We put food out for her, when we did that she ran away but she came back later and ate. She has a flea collar on so she must have belonged to somebody at some point but she is very very scared.
We have been feeding her since then and she looks better. She only comes in the evening to eat. We would like to trap her and take her to the vet. I am praying she is already fixed but also know the probability of this is rather small. This is where we need some advice.
I am concerned of her waiting the whole night in the trap until we can take her in. My concern is that she would hurt herself. What do you guys recommend? Sweet Pea used to come several times to eat and used to wait for my husband in his feeding area for breakfast and dinner, so catching him in the morning and then taking him to the vet was possible.
For now we would have to release her back outside until we can figure out how social she is and find a foster for her- we are willing to donate money for her to be fostered.
