HI! My sister and I are cat people.
She has 2 indoor cats and has rescued 2 feral cats (now, indoor/outdoor cats). (She rescued a 3rd one & found a family for him!)
She will soon be trading her 2 feral cats for a man and moving over 1,000
miles away to a neighborhood that does not allow outside cats.
(Can you imagine?
She would prefer to take all 4 cats with her, but that is just not possible for a variety of reasons.
I have found a farm home for the 2 feral cats. One has adjusted nicely to my sister and her home and occasional strangers. The other - Oreo (B & W) has zero tolerance for any situation outside his norm.
Soon, we will have to transport him 200 miles to his new farm home.
We plan to do this by car. His new family can leave him in their garage and/or shed until he has adjusted.......even a week.
Should we buy a wire crate (large enough for litter and food, etc...)
to transport him the 200 miles, and then just leave it in the new family's garage.
He is so skittish, I can't help but wonder if he will ever adjust to anyone other than my sister. What do you think?
What is the best way to transport him 200 miles and help him adjust?
