I have a TNR trap and have caught a male whom I assumed was feral but, after spending 3 days with him, I now believe he is a stray who has spent a long time on the streets abandoned or lost. He allowed me to pet him, move around him freely, and lift him from one cage to another, although he eyes me with suspicion. I have decided to try to foster him for rehabilitation and eventual adoption rather than releasing him to the wild again. Unfortunately, my own cat does not respond well to other cats in the house and keeping him would be traumatizing to them both. But until I find a foster, I need advice on what to do and not to do to rehabilitate him.I let him out of the trap, in the bathroom, and he is currently hunkered under the vanity and does not appreciate any advance on his position. This, of course, is not an ideal location for him. Any advice is appreciated or suggestions on how to find a foster family (all the local facilities (Tucson) are full and rather unhelpful). I had him neutered and vaccinated. I have rescued 7 other ferals this summer so I am familiar with their behaviors overall. Thank you.
