Hi , there is small colony of feral cats very close to where I live. I am (GW) getting a kitten soon. The neighbor across the street own one white feral. We were on vacation and that feral had jumped our gated front porch and delivered kittens. The neighhood soon started throwing food to the kittens who had set up residency on our front porch while we were away from home. Thankfully, a family member who check on things while we were away ,informed us of the situation.
The same neighhood ppl who threw the food, started complaining ‘bout the smell of uneaten garbage. The Cat and liter scurried back across the street before we returned to clean up the mess.
Then we completely secured our porch from any thing or anyone
The problem is the neighborhood now has a colony of ferals. Roaming our street, I am afraid to deal with them as they are big,wild and maybe full of disease. No one is going to S/N. Ppl have begun to relocate them ie. dump them on some else’s street or porch
My in door only kitten will have a front window view of the street ,trees and birds .
How can I reduce his stress when he sees one or two of the ferals lounging on top of cars across the street?
I thought about taking my kitten on walks in our pet backpack ,to see and smell out our block, and then just before he gets spayed he can go via leash and collar walking to do some of his own markings !
