stray moggy in need of some help

Uthur

hi people!

there is a stray cat appearing in my back garden a lot this week. his fur is in pretty bad shape but he seems somewhat friendly (though very nervous). he
also really needs a few good dinners - he's as skinny as a rail. i hope the fecker doesn't freeze tonight if we get the -5C from the weather forecast.

long story short, is there a pound for cats these days or what should i do here? i can't keep him myself since i've got one already and she's aggressive with other animals. assuming i could catch this cat and get it into a carrier box is there anywhere in dublin that would even take a stray cat? frankly i don't think this guy has too long if someone doesn't start looking after him - before i put some food out he was eating a crust of bread left by the birds. :eek:

all advice appreciated and many thanks!

Did you give the ISPCA a ring? Or maybe the Blue Cross? You could also check with your local vet, they might be able to check, if the cat is microchipped and belongs to someone

Hi, best advice I can give is to email feral cats ireland. They can let you know if there is someone in your area who can help you. Well done for helping him. They don't just help feral cats. They're on Facebook to so you'd get a quick reply
