I don't think you've read my entire post. My neighbour's have already been feeding it, and not taking it to a vet/giving it a safe place to stay. Only feeding. I'm trying to catch it to take it to the vet see if it has an owner/microchip. Also animal control in my city won't get a stray cat until it has been trapped.

And it doesn't have a "shaved patch", it's entire body is shaved, something that our TNR teams wouldn't do because it cold here. I think it is suffering from abuse and that's why I want to trap it.

I'm sure you mean well, and thank you for the advice, but ultimately I'm asking because of the things you stated in your post (shorter life, disease, etc). Because it bit me, my doctor and the local CDC said it's better to have it under observation, and to try to get it into a controlled area. I would also like that for my peace of mind, if I can get it in my closed yard then Animal Control can come pick it up.

Having a makeshift shelter outdoors is not a bad idea, thanks!

Will contact a shelter near me on Monday to see where I can get one.

I wish I was an animal whisperer like you, but most animals are scared of me 😞

Already done, and yeah cat bites are DEEP, lol. I have my tetanus boosters already and low risk of rabies. Just got my wounds cleaned, some antibiotics, and sent on my way. Thanks though!

I think it did used to be someone's pet, it's very friendly to everyone, so that's why I'm trying to get it into my enclosed backyard without a trap. A cardboard box isn't a bad idea either, maybe I can make a makeshift shelter for them.

It's a good story! Hopefully mine turns out a success like yours too lol

No, it's entire body was shaved. No tips of ears missing. I think it might have been a house cat before, and has been unable to reunite with it's owners for whatever reasons.

I'll call the rescues first thing Monday (since they're closed over the weekend) and see if I can get any more advice on how to trap the cat. Thanks!

Thank you for this write up! I think yours is the best way to go about it. I hope it shows up tonight.
