Today I learned that Buster, the stray cat I've been taking care of, has just recently been fixed. When he came inside today, his ear was clipped and his pants were shaved. He's having some trouble adjusting. I feel bad for him but on the other hand, at least I don't have to worry about him getting into fights anymore, hopefully.
What did you learn today?

A stray cat with the ear clipped is a marking that it has already been fixed and recognized by the local humane society as a feral cat.
The best thing you can do for it would be to provide an outdoor shelter and leave it be.
<p>Feral cats can survive in even extremely frigid climates if they are provided with adequate winter shelter. A good feral cat winter shelter will have three essential qualities - it will be well insulated, have minimal air space and be waterproof. Listed

Well, you see, he was unfixed when I met him. He's been coming and going since October of last year. Sometimes he'll come inside to get warm and have a quick bite to eat, but mostly he keeps to himself.

Poor Buster. Hope he stayed out of trouble and behaves for you.
