Well, it seems that Gracie is going to out our new outdoor cat. I hate that she has to be outdoors, maybe she can eventually come in if she can learn to like people.
Here's the scoop...
Today is my last day at this job. I arranged for an organization to provide me with a safe, humane cage and will be trapping her Sunday evening. Monday morning, I take her to the local animal shelter for her spay and then taking her home. She'll get to stay in a kennel type cage out on our balcony for two weeks. The woman said that would be a perfect amount of time to get her to realize that's where she lives.
There is no other place for her. This building will be here until June 2004, but its not a safe place. Its so cold in this city (its at the base of some hills) and the gardner wont allow any type of shelter for her.
So, Gracie is our new outdoor cat. If anyone has any advice, PLEASE offer it here.
You all know how I feel about having an outdoor cat, so please also let me know what you think can help her be more safe once I let her out of her cage.
P.S. Because an outdoor cat on our balcony will really upset Noah, we aren't going to foster the two kittens I talked about. That's just too much for him to handle right now.
