Keeping Outdoor Cats Warm Brings Peace of Mind to Cat Lovers
We have a feral cat colony in our neighborhood, which is beneficial for all the homeowners in the area. For one thing, we simply are not bothered by mice. And the feral cats although usually not handle-able by humans they do become used to and therefore not as skittish around “their” humans and you can develop a more friendly relationship. And do remember if you begin assisting outdoor cats, they can become dependent on that extra help and would suffer if you suddenly just stop providing what ever help you have been giving. Also they will limit the invasion of other feral cats. They are very territorial and they keep their turf free of invaders. So you will not become overrun by feral cats. Of course, the assistance of the trap, neuter, release people would be key to this success so you can control the breeding and re-breeding in your feral colony. You might want to check with feral cat rescue in your area for what they can offer.
There are also Barn cats and abandoned pet cats, which frequently can be converted back to indoor cats, which of course is safer for any cat due to predators and traffic. But the reality is that some cats just live outdoors. So what can be done to assist them. One of the most important things is to help them during the cold winter months. Keeping outdoor cats warm in winter is not difficult and a little bit goes a long way. And it doesn’t have to be so expensive that it stops you from even trying. Take a look at some of the following suggestions that might solve the problems with your outdoor cats.
