Oof this is such a tricky situation. Most vets will need the cat in some sort of carrier (must NOT be in a trap) which itself is really really hard. Then there’s also the issue of their staff does not want to risk whatever could happen to try to calm the cat- feral cats are feral- even the friendly ones. Honestly, feral cats are resilient. We’ve had one that was hit by a car and thought was a goner but she’s stronger than ever LOL. Best of luck…. Most vets won’t even treat a feral… worth a few calls around though

Hey! Speaking from experience- skip the rubber made houses. The cats are too scared to go into it bc once they’re in there- super easy to be ambushed by predator. So what does work? Get one (or two) heating pads (brand sunbeam is my favorite) extra large. Take off the cloth and plug them up outside turn them on high. We’ve tried everything over the years, this is the best answer! The cats are obsessed with it.

Yes! Patterson ave by tiki tiki. I can’t remember what it’s called…. They’re open like 9-4 m-f but did great work on a pair of my shoes!

I’m 99% sure it’s called Manakin-Sabot vet clinic.. just keep going down broad towards Satterwhites. They have neurologists there for cats (we went a few years ago) and some super specialized doctors. So sorry gosh don’t you wish they could talk!!
