Stupied Owners.*Final Update*

take the cat IN, leave the woman OUT. see how she likes it.

I wish this woman would loose her keys or something and had to stay at her door the whole night in the snow!!

May be the cat will try to visit you again or find a better home by herself in the neighborhood. She does not deserves to stay with this

Lastnight,I should say this morning at 12:30am the cat revisited She was meowing at my door and trying to get in.I am unable to take her in due to Felix.The little one on both occassions came after hours.I fed fer again,a can of food and a bag of treats(I cant give her hard food because the food I got is perscription food)and again she ate like a savage.Like she had never been fed since the last time I fed her.When she was done she stayed awhile cleaning herself and than left.I guess she has found shelter somewhere else,she comes here for food ???

I just watched the owners leave for work at around 8 am.I am unsure where the cat is right now but this is what I have done so far...

I just got of the phone with the SPCA answering system.I told the lady taking the message this story and someone from the animal cruelty department will be contacting me today.I also want them to give me a contact number for after hours,so that when/if the cat returns tonight I can get her shelter.

Its an awful feeling knowing that the cat came to me for help and I had to leave her out in the cold again.I literally got sick lastnight of thought of her being outside...alone.Why do I feel guilty?Why do I feel like I done something wrong? Im sorry but I am really sadened by all of this.

Marlaina - you are doing a LOT! Feeding that kitty!

You can always take her to the shelter, with the proviso that they call you if they can't find her a home.

Or - what is it with Felix? Do you have a separate room for the little kitty where you could set up a temporary box and feeding area? Might Felix get used to her/him through the door?

It might take the shock of this cat going to a shelter and the SPCA giving the woman and man an education about cat care - it might sink in! Especially if she comes to your place starving. (and the outdoor litter box - what are they THINKING???)

Keep us posted, and don't feel bad. I know none of us likes to rock the boat and 'insult' other people - things will work out as they should, Marlaina.

Thats a Great Idea to put her in a seperate Room,as I think that after a while Felix will realize that a New Friend would be GREAT.

[Felix]

Its not so much Felix its the "Boss man" that says no way Although we really dont have a room to put her in only our porch which is super tiny.I already tried to introduce the two and Felix didnt like the idea.I would take this girl if I could trust me.But right now I can't.

I still never heard back from anyone,they cant give me a time for sure to when someone will get back to me,because its on a volunteer basis.I will phone shortly after dinner to make sure there wasnt a mix up of some sort.I will keep you posted.

Thanks for the support,Marlaina.

After reading your first post, I felt sure this kitty would come back to you. I'm so glad you helped, feeding and giving the kitty comfort, and contacting SPCA. I hope they can take her for a while, until she finds a loving home. It seems that her family doen't care much for this kitty.

I suggest for now that you build a little house out of polystyrene boxes, they insulate very well. Cover it with thick plastic and cut a hole to get in and out. Put some old blankets or towels in, and put the house in a covered/not windy area by your house, if possible. That will at least keep her warm until you find a solution.

Our greengrocers get vegetables delivered in boxes similar to these, if you put two together, with tape around the middle, you have a house for the kitty.
