She actually did fairly well with the staff and tolerated being poked and prodded. Two blood draws proved all clear on all levels, infectious diseases and other panels. She has already been spayed and released when she was much younger. This was evident by the small green belly tattoo rather than the notched ear, commonly done. I was sent home with medication to be applied to her ear and cone……seriously, a cone for a feral cat?!?!? What could possibly go wrong????[emoji848] Our vet believes that her eye issue was due to an irritated scratch rather than Glaucoma. Eye pressure looked good, I guess.
She is back home and sequestered to our laundry room with a kitty box, kibble, water and a large pad. I even tossed in one of my t-shirts I wore a couple days ago, hoping my smell is on it so she might get use to it. [emoji2371] she will probably pee on it because I was the one who trapped her.[emoji38] our water fountain just outside the window should provide rhythmic sound of falling water to help calm her…[emoji2371][emoji2371]

Good work. I predict you will end up with a grateful, cuddly cat. They eventually figure things out. I've had mistreated cats that took as much as 3 years to trust & show affection.
