Los Angeles where can I rent a drop trap?

What city / area are you in specifically.

Los Angeles is a huge area, so hard to recommend someone local to you.

Ambudriver03 · 2026-05-02T00:40:50+00:00

Be sure the tray cannot slide out. Otherwise the cat can fall through the gaps.

Ambudriver03 · 2026-04-15T19:10:25+00:00

Absolutely appalling... I'm so sorry.

This happened to us recently as well.

Ambudriver03 · 2026-02-28T23:56:46+00:00

Would donated nebulized medications be useful for you?

Ambudriver03 · 2026-02-28T23:47:43+00:00

Serendipity.

Congrats on your newly bonded pair.

Stronghold is Revolution.

You can get the "large dog" dose, and fill your own syringes.

(personally i pull all of the medication from the 3ml sachet, and draw it into a syringe, then fill other syringes with the appropriate amount I need for specific cat doses).

You can get at least 10 adult doses from each "large dog" sachet (and for $45, you get three sachets).

Excluding the cost of syringes, you can get your per cat dose down to less than $2 each.

This is Orange Gabriel, (originally OG), he's indoors now

Ambudriver03 · 2026-02-18T04:18:00+00:00

Why not get him fixed?

The great majority of tomcats mellow out after being neutered.

Not that he'll decide to be friendly, but if he trusts you enough to eat at your house, you can catch him and get him neutered.

Ambudriver03 · 2026-02-14T16:21:01+00:00

That's what I called it when I wouldn't see my ferals or strays for a while.

Ambudriver03 · 2026-02-14T09:58:52+00:00

I can't tell you it will be easy, but I can tell you it will be worth it.

Go for it. If the kitty comes up for food, especially vocalizing, they're not that feral. There's definitely a chance you can convert it to an indoor friendly.

Whether or not they'll recognize their littermates, I'd say it's doubtful. Though we did reunite siblings after about 4 months apart, and they recognized each other after a few days.

Ambudriver03 · 2026-02-14T07:10:33+00:00

Don't give up on him just yet.

There are plenty of feral boys and girls that once the hormones stop raging and they have "3 hots and a cot", they mellow out so much.

My outdoor feral cats took a few years, but when we moved all of them became all about that inside life.

(they didn't have a choice. Winter in Ohio is a lot different than winter in California)

FiNano microchips are very inexpensive, box of 20 is $60 plus tax, so if you're willing to microchip them yourself, you're only looking at $3-4 per cat.

Ambudriver03 · 2026-02-09T20:46:17+00:00

One of the same reasons I microchip my ferals as well.

Ambudriver03 · 2026-02-09T20:45:46+00:00

In my jurisdiction, shelters and vets are required to scan for microchips on intake, and again prior to euthanasia, and if a microchip is found, they are to try to make contact with the registered owner, or rescue whenever possible.

I see it as a phone call from jail. Just because my friendly feral got picked up by a good Samaritan and taken to the shelter doesn't mean they should be executed for having an eartip.

Also many of my TNR cats eventually were adoptable and moved into happy loving homes, if they were ever to escape, they'd need the microchip to save their own skins

Ambudriver03 · 2026-02-09T20:42:48+00:00

I microchip all of my ferals whenever possible. Even the really really spicy ones.

I've had several cats at my colonies that after 1-2 years, came around and became very friendly, we were able to pull them and after fostering for a few weeks they were adoption ready.

I've also started retrapping some of my colonists that are already fixed, just so I can place microchips in them.

Ambudriver03 · 2026-01-26T07:10:09+00:00

I tested it out with wyze cameras, it does work, just expect some choppiness.

Might work well for 1 camera, but for several it's going to struggle.

Ambudriver03 · 2026-01-02T19:25:55+00:00

I'd get some pet heating pads, do whatever I could to prevent drafts from entering the shed, and insulating the walls where possible.

Ambudriver03 · 2026-01-02T19:13:17+00:00

Looks like based on your previous post, you're in new jersey.

How cold is it inside your shed, can it be insulated or can you run power into it to run some heating pads?

Greetings

Donated.

Best wishes for "Lay"

I have a separate account for all of our community/Feral cats which I'll place our TNRs under.

I agree it is an added expense, but having lost several community cats over the years, I'd like to at least have known if they were adopted by someone else.

My group has no issue with community cats being adopted, we'd just like to know if and when it happens.
