Hi, not been on here as much lately as work & hospital visits taking my time up,
so when i come home been spending quality time with my babies :Luv2:
I have mentioned before on here about 2 little cats hanging around.
We'll the tortie is back and she is looking very thin (have just been & put food & water out in garden for her)
Now if i was to trap her, the problem i will have is keeping her here.
Not one of mine seem to like her (bless her) even Flora now wacks at the window, and go like bog-brushes.
Very strange as they dont do it with the tabby n white one, but i aint seen her for a while now.
If she does have a home.... then her owners should be concerned about her weight.
or am i just being a worry wart.

poor baby
I would trap her and get her to the vets for a health check, and go from there. Maybe try local rescues and see if a temp home can be found.
You never know she may just be thoroughly lost (even if been for months) and if she's chipped then track down the owners.
Fingers and paws crossed for her here

Good point. Poor thing :(

Poor love I would try a paper collar to ask whether she belongs to anyone, contact your local CP and see what they advise and borrow a trap and get her vet checked. CP will also give you details of lost and found for your area and they can see whether a cat is missing of that description, if it doesn't seem like she has a home and is a stray, hopefully they or another rescue will take her. Best of luck xx

She used to sit outside a window a few doors along, but i dont want to knock and interfere (if you know what i mean)
She seems very nervous and wont come anywhere near me, even with a nice treat as a bribe.
Will kep going out to se and talk to her, hopefully she will learn to trust me.

Well done Tina for doing this :hug:
-
poor little thing
I think I would feed as often as possible, as then if weight goes on her you will know she is either a stray or neglected
-
I think she will get more trusting of you and well done for looking out for her :)
-
The spare wheelie bin is on its side aswell for shelter.
So with food aswell, she may learn to trust me.
-
poor girl, with our (semii) ferals I usually get down onto their level too and that helps
-
Aw, poor little thing. Hopefully she will learn to trust you.
-
Hopefully this babe is not a stray and does have a loving home :Luv2:
Don't forget that some illnesses can make cats thinner, thyroid for example, so does not always mean they are being neglected, they could be on medication and under the vets already.
Defo agree with the paper collar idea, if you can gain enough trust to get close enough to this little one. Or speak to CP about trapping and checking for a microchip.
