Hello,
I live in Southern Ontario in Canada and we are currently experiencing a much harsher winter than the last 5 or so. I live in an area where very stupid college students will dump their pets on the street when they change apartments or go home for the summer. This needless to say causes a great deal of problems. I permanently am residing in a house here with my boyfriend. We had spotted signs of a cat crossing through our backyard so we began putting food for it. A couple days go by and we spot a very shy Russian blue running around in a terrible snow storm but was too afraid to approach us. He sat and watched us for a bit before scampering off.
We had gotten advice to use one of our live traps to see if we could trap kitty. While we were digging it out of the shed and prepping a room to house kitty for the ordeal, we have no discovered a second cat! He also looks like a stray seeing as he was this stripy one that let us get a bit closer before scampering off. Now I'm not sure what to do. We only saw the other cat toward the evening but still light out, this one toward lunch time.
We've been watching the situation for almost two weeks now and had never thought their might be more than one. I do know that one meows softly outside my door at night but then scampers off when I appear. I only ever saw their backside heading into the shrubs so not sure which one it is. I'm at a loss of what to do and hope someone more experienced can give me direction.
I understand they might be very afraid, some people around here can be very cruel with all the drunk students in the evenings. Thanks in advance for any and all advice!
