Hi! My name is Cathy and I love animals! I feed the birds , the deer and 3 feral cats out on my deck. I'm retired so I can spend more time with all my critters. I was looking for a site like this because one of my feral cats had a degloved tail, (the hair and skin was missing on about 4 inches of his tail). My Vet was totally generous....he repaired the tail and neutered Tiger (thats what I call him) for no charge. (I baked him a cake and wrote thank you on it!). Tiger now lives in my spare bedroom while I try to socialize him. It's been about 3 weeks since I live trapped him. He's about 3 years old so it might be impossible to socialize him but I'm going to give it a try.
I also share my life with another female cat named Miesha. She's my precious, little, independant girl that loves to snuggle with me when she wants to!! But thats OK, I'll take what I can get! I adopted her from a shelter about 3 months ago. She's also about 3 years old.
I'm hoping to get lots of advice on how to socialize Tiger. He spits and slaps at me a lot but I'm trying to be patient. I cat proofed the spare bedroom after Tiger showed me what worked and what didn't if you know what I mean?!!!
. I share treats with him on a long handled spoon like tuna or cooked hamburger once a day. He does eat it after he spits and slaps at the spoon a coupleof times! I've read to him, sat in there while on my computer, I'm doing everything I can think of to show him I can give him a better life than running around out in that cold,cruel world! I even today ordered one of those feli-way electric diffusers somebody told me about. I sure hope they ship it fast!!! I need all the help I can get! Anyway, I would love to make some new friends and maybe learn some helpful things about cats. A big hello to everyone!!
This is my beautiful Miesha.
This is Tiger taken through the sliding glass door. He's eating on the picnic table.
This is baby girl. I'm going to trap her next and get her spayed. (I'm guessing she's a girl, she's a lot smaller than Tiger.)
This one I don't see as often, so I don't know if she (I'm guessing again) belongs to anyone but I call her Momma Kitty. She's been around the longest.
Like I said before, hoping to make some friends! Bye for now!
