I was driving home on a long trip Friday night in the pouring rain... I stopped for gas and saw 5 feral cats hanging around the gas station. Three were about 9 weeks according to the woman who worked there. I had another 2 hours to go in the car so I knew I couldn't take them with me. But those babies haunted me all weekend till today when my husband and I went back there to see if we could catch them. We got the 2 smallest, but I'm afraid I didn't know about the trap cages. We actually caught them by hand and put them into a carrier, and one was ok with it, but the other kicked and screamed and fought for his life. I was so stressed to traumatize him, and now I'm afraid I shouldn't have done it. I should have learned about the trap first. They both settled down in the carrier looking resigned to their fate. We got them into a small room and opened the carrier into a dog kennel but they wouldn't move. I'm afraid they are paralyzed with fear! We left the room for a few hours and went back in... They are still In the carrier! I just hope I didn't damage the little guy for life. It broke my heart to see him scared and struggling. I've never taken in a feral, but it's getting cold and I'm afraid they will freeze. Do you think I still have a chance to gain their trust?
