A beautiful siamese I've been feeding for about 3 months. She (or he?) is now on my back porch, with food, water, and a litterbox. My porch is unheated and it's 6 degrees outside. I washed out a cat carrier, however, and put about three inches of straw in it, covered that with a faux sheepskin, then covered that with a soft pallet (the kind Drs. Foster & Smith sells, which reflects the cat's body heat), then wrapped the whole carrier in an old blanket.
Here's how she's reacting: She growled when I carried her into the porch, ran to the door (of course) when I let her out of the trap, growled when I went onto the porch to leave her some food, is mesmerized by the sliding glass door (the light over the deck is on, so she can see outside), has thrown herself against it a couple of times, desperate to get out.
Have I done right??? Should I let her out? Do you think she has kittens outside somewhere? She's been staying somewhere behind my neighbor's house, and they have a huge yard, so I don't know if there are kittens anywhere. She's quite plump, as I've been feeding her Wellness. I feel bad that she wants out so badly. Will she calm down? Should I keep her on the porch? PLEASE advise???!!!
