1st, don't tell me to keep the cat inside, this is what I do with my cats, that's why I have no experience with outdoor cats. This one is a feral kitten I rescued because it had a problem, and I took it to the vet to have surgery, spayed it and some friends will take it but they will keep it outdoors. The other option is to go back on the streets.
My question is, how to approach the issue? The kitten is 3 months old, but very timid, at least at first. We went to the new house, she tried to run away and hide. Then she would sit on my lap, but not move,although in my house she is very playful. I suggested that they keep her in a room for a few days, and then keep her on the balcony before letting her outside. How long should she be kept in the house? How do they learn to feel that this is home and not run away, even if they are in the garden?
