A stray cat came to our home about a week ago. He/she is extremely skinny and malnourished. About 3 weeks previous, she/he had come to our house, however it wasn’t nearly as sick and skinny looking. We fed him for a couple of says and then he left. Almost every bone in his/her body is able to be felt (he/she is a fluffy cat so it isn’t that noticable that it’s skinny). We have 3 other cats that we take to the vet, along with 5 dogs and 2 horses. All of whom we take very good care of. However, we can’t afford to take this stray to a vet. All of our animals came to us as strays, so we try our hardest to help the animals. All of our 3 cats a completely avoiding the cat, going as far as to sleep and eat in the gaurage rather than the front porch. Are there ANY, ANY at all, home remedies that I could try to help this cat? His/her energy level is very low, it doesn’t go very far at all. Mostly it justs sleeps. How can I help this cat?
We live out in the country and a lone puppy recently showed up on our doorstep. We took him to a no-kill shelter ( we had to lie that we found him in a parking lot). As everyone knows, your not suppost to take animals to a shelter outside of city limits. So what should I do? Take him to another animals shelter and say I found him on the side of the road?
