13. The problem is that he's eating very small amounts at a time.

Something like acepromozine can have varying results.

Part of the reason that I wrote the post is because in all of the information available as to TNR and colony management, there is very little dedicated information to older ferals. As more people become involved in TNR, as it becomes more accepted, etc., ferals will have the opportunity to live longer, and end of life issues for them need to be a part of the discussion.

Appreciate your reply. Thank you.
