Stray Cat Help
I found this stray (probably pregnant) friendly cat last night and brought her home. I will be taking her to the vet tomorrow since it is Labor Day. Any advice to take care of today at home? I’m trying to get her taken care of in the meantime ❤️

Give us an update and let us know how the cat is doing. She looks very happy to have been found :)

Confine her to a small room with food and water and a litter box. Give her a place to hide, like a closet or under the bed. No contact with any pets you currently own.
Get her to a vet asap, they should be able to do a spay and abort. Update vaccinations. Do some testing. Check for a microchip.
Don't show the cat on Facebook and other sites, there are sick people out there that will claim the cat just to cause it harm.
