There was a cat outside and it was kinda stray. The neighbors moved away and left it so the other day I caught it. I took it to the vet and it was pretty healthy and now it is purring. Maybe I will keep this cat? Ask me any questions about the capturing of this cat.

concerned mom posted:How do you know it was the neighbours who moved away? A) the lady who moved away had a cat that sat in the window and it looked like this cat B) the lady who moved away was a robo-oval office who put her dog down because it wouldn't stop barking. It barked because she never bothered to housebreak it so she kept it in a pen in the backyard. Her ditching the cat seems plausible. C) the new people said this cat would sit outside their door and try to get in the house and they were all "WTF where is this cat from?" It never crossed their minds someone would be so callous as to move and just leave their pet. They assumed it was one of the other neighbors' cat.

Rutibex posted:how did you capture it? there is a pair of wild kittens that live in my and my neighbors back yards. they run away from anyone that approaches them, but they are cute as a button when they are rifling through your trash for scraps. THANK YOU. Jesus. All I wanted to do was recount the thrilling story and I needed someone to ask so it didn't seem like I was bragging. I captured this cat with my hands. I put some food out, and when this cat came to eat it, I started petting it. Then I grabbed the cat and put it in a cage. I use one hand to grab the scruff because I was worried about it biting me, and I wore leather gloves because I wasn't sure if it had cat diseases (it does not). The cat started bitching so I gave it more food and some towels to sleep on and it stopped bellyaching. If you want to catch baby cats you have to be crafty. Maybe a trap like this? It is cold here too, so I also caught the cat before it is super cold.

Rutibex posted:hmm, i hadn't thought of a trap. a friend of mine has a humane raccoon trap that might work, i would just need to check it really frequently i wouldn't want them caught in a cage for a long time like over night or something make the hole kitten sized so raccoons or whatever can't get in.

I swung by to check on the cat and snapped a photo for y'all. Here she is on top of her BOX FORT in the little cage made for her. She's supposed to stay confined for a while to get used to being inside again. It was a weird shaped box that was a good cat fort shape so it worked out.  Here's a bonus pic of her $325 haircut  Her fur was all hosed up and had a bunch of mats. They had to sedate her to shave it because it was that bad. She also had a wound that needed 4 stitches. I could have gotten a 2 wk course of antibiotics for $33 or a 1 time shot for $38. I was like there's no goddamn way I'm trying to give a cat medicine 2 times a day for the next two weeks to save five dollars. The doctor said most people opt for the shot. But no fleas or whatever weird cat AIDS poo poo cats have so that's good. She seems happy and purrs when I pet her so I guess the cat is OK and not too put out about the haircut.

Microwaves Mom posted:Stealing a cat? That's a feelineoly offense! The cat has been named by my 4 yr old niece. She chose "bix-kit" (Biscuit). Idk why, but the fact she hosed up the name of one of the best bread foods like a retard made me laugh so that works.

 Cat updateWhen I woke up this morning, the cat's water dish was EMPTY! Where did it go? Did the cat drink it all? It's a very small cat, I don't think it could drink 25% of it's bodyweight in water overnight. Was it evaporation?
