Cat Shelter

DougE, where do you find straw in New Braunfels? I've found all kinds of stuff, but not straw.

Good work on that shelter. Now set it on the sunniest side of your place, out of the north wind, and they'll do nicely.

Thank you for looking after them. I always feel bad for the pets that get abandoned especially this close to winter.

I have an ex feral cat sitting on the sofa next to me right now.

My wife left some chicken out for a couple of feral cats (10? years ago) and
they never left. One disappeared, the other was a female and gave birth to
2 kittens. The mother allowed me to handle her and her kittens - so they got
used to human contact/presence. When winter came, they found out very quickly
that the inside of our house was warmer then the outside.... and there was
free food.

One of the cats sleeps on my chest while I watch TV and the mother lays next
to me and lays on the garage floor while I work on my car/motorcycle. I was
never a cat person but that all changed now.

Our local county animal shelter neuters cats for $45, so we had all of them
neutered.

Thanks for looking after our feline friends. After the kittens get used to there new shelter, maybe shield the entrances with a wind break, bale of straw etc.

That was really cool of you.
Seriously, thanks for what you did.

Thank you for helping.

Now all you need is two names.

I've seen those made out of rubbermaid clear plastic containers, bottom side up so the lid is on the bottom and round holes for the cats to go thru. You did a great job and a wonderful thing by helping them. Thank you!

You have been chosen to be owned by two cats.
