Need stray cat advice
I have a stray cat I have been feeding for over a year. She has come a
long way and has started to interact with me. But I need some advice on what to do next. We are moving this month and I have made plans to take her with us to the new house. My question is she is always sitting outside and when she sees me she comes to my legs and rubs herself, sometimes I get to pet her while she is rubbing herself but when she catchs herself letting me pet her she swats at me and runs. Then two minutes later she is back at my feet like she wants something. I feed her twice a day but I think she wants attention. What should I do next? Thanks Silvia |

If you don't want to buy a humane trap, see if you can borrow one from your animal control people. If you have a cat carrier, you might be able to lure her in there with a can of tuna or something like that and close the door behind her. Then get her to the vet for a checkup, shots, and spay. Someone else will have to tell her what to do once you get her to the new house. That will be the hard part -- keeping her around without scaring her to death, and having her run away. 8^)~~~ Sue (remove the x to e-mail) ~~~~~~ "I reserve the absolute right to be smarter today than I was yesterday." -Adlai Stevenson ************************************************* http://www.intergnat.com/malebashing/ ************************************************* Due to the receipt of unmanagable amounts of SPAM, I have had to add an extra letter to my e-mail address.
