The first priority is to keep both the stray cat and your pets safe until you can find a new home for the stray. If the cat’s owner cannot be found, your next task is to find her a new home. Have the stray checked for a microchip ID. Call local shelters and ask whether they have reports of a missing pet. Most cats don’t stray far, so ask neighbors whether they recognize the cat. If the stray comes to you willingly and seems friendly, it may be someone’s missing pet. Even careful and loving owners sometimes lose a pet. Are you sure the stray is homeless?ĭon’t assume that a wandering animal is homeless, or that she has an uncaring owner. If you or a family member has an allergy problem, consult a pet-friendly allergy specialist, who will work with you to manage the allergies and allow you to keep your cat. The good news is that you don’t have to give up the cat in order to address these (and other)issues! If your cat has a medical or behavioral problem, call us for behavioral advice or to set up an appointment. The reasons for giving up a pet vary, but often include allergies, moving,childbirth, and behavior problems. Shelters usually have fewer strays than animals that have been turned-in by former owners. The sad fact is that almost 80% of cats do not stay with their first owner beyond two years. Please note: Paws Whiskers & Claws doesnot accept cats for adoption. It’s a familiar dilemma for many cat-lovers: we want to rescue homeless and abandoned cats,but we can’t always keep them! Here are some tips to help you find a good home for a stray cat.
