For the past two days, I've let Elsie out in her run for a couple of hours [long story short, her run broke and we got another one built but it needs adjustments before it can be used full time] and I've noticed that about 5-6 cats congregate around the garden when she's out in her run. Today, we had to take her to the vet because of suspected stasis. She's still recovering but now I'm really deflated because what if this happens every time she's out in her run? One of the cats even jumped on top of the run.
Two of the cats are ours, but the other three to four aren't. So obviously even if we bring ours in, there's still going to be cats hanging around.
The other option that the vet mentioned was the stress of Arthur coming, but I'm not entirely sure that could be it considering he's been here two weeks and she's only been out in her run for the past few days.
Any suggestions? Has anyone dealt with this before? I'm worried she'll never be able to go out in her run. Vet suggested a hidey hole in her run but may not cure issue.
