cats to calm them down

What can I give 2 cats to calm them down. They are afraid of everyone, but will come out to eat. They can get in the dropped ceiling, do not want handled. I have found a cat rescue that will take them, but I need to get them into the carriers. I am 82 and it is not easy. They need to be around people, they are very sweet but don’t want handled. They are only 3 years old, spayed, all their shots, never been out side since then. Thank you.

TOXIC INSECT BITES

TOXIC INSECT BITES? We have found brown and black widow spiders and dead bees around the yard. Our dog has twice gotten extremely ill around Thanksgiving, as if she were on her last legs, could not stand, yet after $1000 vet bills, still could not diagnose problem. My husband wants Terminex to treat the yard but I fear that would even we worse. Do any dogs at DELTA ever get bitten by spiders or scorpions of have allergic reactions of bee stings or bites? What should we do?
