“They need to be well insulated to trap the cats’ body heat, have minimal air space so there isn’t too much empty room to heat up, and be waterproof so the interior remains dry,” said the website.When it comes to food, the SPCA says use dry kibble placed in ceramic or plastic dishes. For water, check it twice daily to ensure it stays ice-free.
“The dishes should be placed near but not inside shelters in case they get spilled,” said the SPCA. “Damp bedding just makes it colder for cats.” Also, motorists should tap the hood of their vehicle and check between the tires to ensure a cat isn’t hiding there or using it as a warm refuge.There’s also trap-and-neuter, which the SPCA says can improve the health and well-being of each cat within a colony.The SPCA says if you decide to take this route, contact them for advice.
“Tens of thousands of cats and kittens live outdoors in B.C., suffering from illness, injuries, starvation, frostbite and predator attacks,” said the SPCA. “Using the method is just one of the ways the B.C. SPCA is working to help tackle the cat overpopulation crisis.”
