Hi! A friend of mine has two stray cats that roam around her neighborhood (and her back yard). The lady next door feeds them, when she is in town. Other than that, they don't really belong to anyone. I told my friend that if she would set a trap, I'd pick up the cats and take them to the vet to get fixed.
My question is this: After they are spayed/neutered, I know I must keep him/her in the trap for 1 day. But how do I care for him/her while he's/she's in there? Where would he/she use the restroom? How would I give him/her water? I don't know how friendly the cats are? I doubt they will want to eat very much after surgery...
Can anyone help? The last time I did this, I trapped the cat and took her to a friend who's part of The Cat Network. She took the cat to be spayed and took care of her for two days (the cat was pregnant). She then brought her back to my neighborhood and released her back to her "home."
So this time, I have to do all that. And I really want to help these cats! Any advice would be so very welcome. Thanks!!
