Hello everyone. I found this site yesterday while looking for help in rehabing a stray that I had just brought into a cabin on our property. Already I have had some welcomes and some advice, thanks so much for that.
We live in a rural area in northern British Columbia. Right now we are in the middle of winter, and its been a cold and snowy one. But that's January here, and it will pass.
We have 4 cats who are inside. they are 5, 11, 15 and 16 years old. We also have 4 large dogs and everyone gets along fine. The cats never go out in the winter, they don't like to get their feet wet! In summer they will venture out and sit on the front deck, but none seem interested in going far. The oldest one will go for a walk but never out of sight of the house, I don't allow them to go for walks without a dog to keep them company! We have far too many preditor type animals here, and our dogs are great babysitters.
My next move will be to integrate the stray living in the guest cabin into the 4 legged family, but that will take some time. I feel confident it wil happen, I just hope everyone will be on board when it's time.
Anyway, just wanted to say hello and introduce myself and our "second family", I look forward to getting to know others, sometime living in such a rural area in the winter can be a lonely time!!
