i want to trap a semi feral cat from near my old house and bring her to my new place-10 mins away from the old place-i've already seen the old tom we call spic and span here-only cat i never could trap to neuter to darn smart! Would it be safe to do with her? nobody is feeding her anymore and consider her a problem. She is a sweet cat when she wants to be.

It is certainly worth a try!

Especially as she doesnt no longer get food there.
If you give her food at the new place, she will probably stay.

the problem otherwise, is some cats do return to their old revire. It shoulnt be so here.


Although I muss confess, i dont quite understand the passage about the tom cat. What is the connection??


good luck!

its the tom that used to eat with her at the old house and she liked him alot, she would follow him around-we think they are brother and sister. He made it down this far and she didnt. SO I am thinking that if she smells his scent it may make it easier to keep her in this area.

I see. So her pal is also at your place now.
So do it. Preferably asap, as you write the old neighbours see her as a nuisance.
She doesnt have yours protection any longer, so now she is in danger.

Perhaps some preventive action is in place? Phone to your old neigbours, chat a little, ask about her telling you are going to collect her very soon.


good luck!
