Good evening,
That's the boy I'm talking about up there^^
I am currently in the process of bringing a feral/stray cat in from outside. I have an appointment set up December 12th with a local shelter where they'll neuter, test, and give him shots.
He's such a sweetie, he has been coming every day since August and cries when my boyfriend or I leave him to go inside. We've named him Binks. He looks to be about two years old.
We have two male cats of our own right now, so we've set up a room for him that's seperate and away from them until we can slowly introduce the cats. I want to bring him in next week just to start getting him comfortable before his visit.
On to my questions/concerns:
1. I'm concerned about Binks transferring something to my current cats, like fleas or parasites. Should I do a flea treatment before bringing him in? They're going to deworm him at his appointment I believe, but should I do that now instead? And then just let them know?
2. How long should I wait before introducing Binks to his other brothers?
3. Should I try and bathe him?
4. How do I make him the most comfortable during all of this?
Thanks so much for reading all of this and helping me out!
Below are his new brothers and Dad. ( the brothers are biological brothers that we adopted from a rescue two years ago)
