cineater Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 My feral box had an inch of water in it! Might be because I haven't taped down the top yet. I need straw for bedding. I can put the front door under the patio table and keep anything from blowing in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cineater Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 I think the real problem was the lid is not detachable and rain comes in through the hinge. Put the whole box in a black trash bag and gorilla taped the door opening into it. Got the door opening under my little table and threw some plastic over it. Makes a nice little covering for the food too. Just waiting for Mr Kitty to come by and see if he likes it. Lily thinks it's interesting. The mice probably think I put up a motel.

cineater Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 He came up and checked it out but didn't go in. Think he appreciated the covering over the food station as he stayed in there a while. Marked his territory on his way back towards the woods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cineater Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Little George, the opossum, looks a lot better with his winter coat. He's become afraid of me or maybe it's just when I'm standing. I've taken up leaving him a food offering every night. He doesn't like carrots or green peppers. Apples appear to be his favorite. There's green tomatoes out there so we'll see if he likes them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cineater Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I don't know what is with Lily. She was wild last night, running circles around, under the bed. Lasted so long I thought maybe she had brought a mouse into the bedroom. The more I moved shit around to see if there was something there, the more she acted like she was catching something. I tore the whole bed apart to make sure there wasn't something under the sheets. It's going to be a long winter if the cat has cabin fever already.

cineater Posted November 30, 2019 Share Posted November 30, 2019 Mr Kitty has rejected my cat shelter. He prefers to make a home in my leaf mulch. He is so meant to be my cat just the wilder, freer one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axls Rocket Queen Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 My little boy Ripley has been very poorly recently, 2 hospital stays to treat a blocked bladder most likely related to stress around moving house He's doing better now thankfully, hoping we don't have any relapses now we're in our new place and he's getting more settled. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel for you! 3 weeks ago I had to take my kitty Quinn to the hospital...diagnosis was Feline Idiopathic Cystitis. Have had to change many things in his life to reduce the stress, pain and issues this has caused but after 3 long weeks I think he is finally feeling better. This will be lifelong for him though. Doesn't it break your heart when our fur babies are in such pain. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cineater Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 I almost came home with another cat. It's really hard to tell your friend, who use to take animals into protective custody, you don't have room. When she tells you this cat needs a good home, you know it's been through some shit. Thank god Karen stepped up. I tell myself I don't have room but really I'd take another cat or two or three if it needs a home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got him on a long course of meds and hoping once he's fully settled in we can get him off most of he meds and avoid him needing PU surgery. He's much better in himself and more relaxed (we only moved 2 weeks ago so still very new to him) but still not urinating 100% normally so taking it day by day.

cineater Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 I know they aren't pets but look at all those people rushing to help the wildlife in the Australian wildfires. Great people out there doing wonderful things. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marlingrl03 Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 We have been in a wicked cold snap that won't break till Saturday. Right now it is -4*....I feel so badly for the dogs who have to go outside to do their business and the people that have to take them outside to do it if they don't have a yard. Even Barley has been hanging around the baseboard heater and has been eating more I think to stay warm...even though he is inside! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cineater Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 (edited) I have a new stray. A grey short hair with a racoon tail. Not sure if it's a boy or a girl. Won't let me come near or come when be called. Mr Kitty showed back up today so I'm putting out food again. Let me get to know the grey and we can work on a name. Nobody is using my shelter. I have found the answer to how one becomes an old lady with cats. Do you go to the shelter and pick them up or do they just show up? They just show up.

cineater Posted February 25, 2020 Share Posted February 25, 2020 Well, that was a little freaky. Simone and I are on the couch and all the sudden there's Lily's head looking at us from the end of the couch. She's a small cat so she's not tall enough to sit on the floor and look over the arm of the couch. And she wasn't even touching the couch for support. Simone and I look at each other, how's she doing that? I look around the couch and Lily is standing up on her hind legs, like a person. Her arms just hanging down at her side. It was like her head was floating in air from where we were sitting. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
