indoors and outdoors Arrival Story: About eight years ago, when I was watering my garden I started seeing a cute little stray cat who would come and sit on my fence. I named her Willow because she just hung around. The first time I tried to pet her, she bit me, so I told her that she was on a time out until she was more used to me. Eventually, two weeks later, she not only let me pet her but she let me hold her and cuddle her. She eats here twice a day and I had built her a little cat house out of wood to help her fend off the winds ect. She used to come inside the house but only for a couple of hours before she would cry very hard to go back outside. She had been outside too long to adapt inside. Eventually, I got Daisy so I could have an inside kitty all the time. WIllow deserves so much more, A neighbor on the other side of the fence gives her flea contol once a month. I worry about her a lot though. Lives Remaining: 9 of 9 Forums Motto: Angels please take care of me!? The Groups I'm In: Jewish Kitty/ Pup households, Pet Psychic Communication
Pawleeese! All of you semi feral kitties like me...
be so careful now! This holiday brings out many kitty haters and we need to stay away from them. My mom wishes when she met me i would of come inside but i wouldn't. for eight years now, she takes care of me but i won't go inside. outside kitties are at risk of so many dangers and Halloween is one of the worst ones. So... be careful my brothers and sisters, cuz many mean mean people do bad things to us on this time of the year.
Since Willow could never adjust inside, and I feel so horrid her being outside! I found a good outdoor heated pad blanket that is chew proof and has a steel coating around the cord and then a pvc coating. it heats the cat to 102 degrees even in Goddess forbid 20 below zero which it doesn't get in California. But even so, I cry at the thought of her out there when it's cold. She has a wooden cat house that is rainproof and three foot up from the ground by the back door but still... i wished she was inside like my other cat Daisy. Now, at least she'll be warm. She does curl up in her little house at night. Even sometimes during the day. it is so the light is shaded and only one doorway to go in and out of that is faced away from the winds direction.
