Aggressive Feral Cat

[moosmom]

Feral cats are not aggressive by nature. Since this little guy was pretty much mellow in the beginning, it could very well be that he's sick or injured. Cats can get mean when they're not feeling well.

The situation has gone from bad to worse. The spray bottle helped for awhile but in the long run it was a bad idea. He's now added the baring of teeth and refusing to back away to his other aggressive actions.

I've stopped putting food and water in the back yard altogether and have moved the dishes to the side yard. It's more open and within a few feet of where my neighbor puts out her food. She's had cats all of her life and I'm hoping that once she can see his behavior she can make the decision whether to have him removed or not. Having him removed will only be done as a last resort!

Can you live trap him and take him to a vet? He might be sick, as moosmom said.
Maybe put a mild tranny in some wet food for him to take before he goes there...


I hope things work out.
