is our shelter's policy for barn cats, as they are outdoors/working cats and need that time to acclimate to the area. It takes that long to acclimate them to a larger outdoor area. We usually start opening the crate at 4 weeks but feed them in it for another week. I'm not sure how Winnie is going to take to another cat. Someone suggested a boy, but in my experience they tend to roam and are not always good rodent control officers. The ladies tend to stay closer to home and do the job they are hired for.
