question about relocation of a cat colony

Ok, this is for anyone who has moved feral cat into an outdoor enclosure...We have relocated 5 out of the 7 and most are doing quite well considering its only been about a week or two since we have moved them in to their new outdoor enclosure. I do have one little girl whom seems quite depressed Emma mae. About how long do you all think before she starts to feel more comfortable? She stays at the top of the cat walk and I never see her come down, she is eating and drinking, but I have yet to see her come down to go to the bathroom, she was brought to the new enclosure on thursday the 12th of April so only 4 days so far. I love thems so dearly I just worry, any thoughts?...

I have not ever moved ferals into an enclosure. BUT I think it is a wonderful, fantastic idea :nod: And would do it in a heartbeat, if possible. Anyway, I think Emma is going to need many days before she moves about in that enclosure. I would think she is still in the shock phase of this whole transfer. Do you think any of the other cats are bullying her? If so, that could be the problem. If not, then I just think she is going to be one that will need much more time to adjust to her new way of life. You say she is eating/drinking. I bet she is using the boxes during the night. During the day, she stays in her safe spot. It is a beautiful thing you are doing for these kitties Your enclosure is fantastic
