    Friendly feral- then not friendly?

    She's been getting a bit better. She actually meowed at me for food, and let me pet her a bit, and she slept on the blanket out in the open a few times, but not often. Waits out in the hallway sometimes. A lot of other things but I finished up mostly a project nearby - that's the colony she...

    Friendly feral- then not friendly?

    It's been awhile, but it's more of the same. Jenny is coming out more often, mostly during meal times or when she hears me prepping food in the kitchen, and she'll hang in the back of the animal crew I have here. Never really hides in the bathroom anymore, she plays with toys sometimes. When...

    RE: ARTICLE ABOUT UNHOUSED CATS

    I can see why return to field is used in some cases. There's never going to be enough people willing to foster/volunteer/adopt/adopt a colony. But other hand it seems like a cop out when a lot of these big orgs tend to push narratives but don't do as much as they should for rescue. Forgot the...

    Friendly feral- then not friendly?

    Really thinking about releasing Jenny. I pet her behind the toilet with the feather stick a few times. But then she lashed out at me because I was too close and sat on the toilet cover even tho she was purring a few seconds ago. After a month of being in my bathroom I'm feeling she's getting...

    Friendly feral- then not friendly?

    Jenny's ringworm is healing, halfway done with meds. She's more eager to come out from behind the toilet to take her meds in baby food and to eat inches from me before going back to hide again...She really needs a lot of encouragement to eat more on her own. She will eat every bite if I hand...

    Friendly feral- then not friendly?

    I've decided to let her roam the bathroom since she seems more comfy outside the crate. Unfortunately as I had a hunch she had ringworm so I'm cleaning everything, giving her meds x2 a day in food, which she eats, but I'm not able to spray antifungal or she'll freak out for sure. So she has to...

    Friendly feral- then not friendly?

    Since she regressed last week, I put her back in the crate and kept the door closed so I could easily interact with her. I fed her between the bars and past few days left the door open during meal time and she came out to eat half a bowl and back in. Recently she stretches-greets me in the...

    Stray Cat Mum

    It may be worth just asking a rescue to do TNR (trap neuter release) so she won't have any more kittens if she's nearby. If you don't have funds for it a rescue can usually do it for free. They may also get any stray males that come by so they won't spray, yowl, or cause fights. TNR is usually...

    Friendly feral- then not friendly?

    Thank you! Hoping so. It's so strange because she acted very friendly to me, which was unexpected (I was planning this would take awhile before I could pet her), then I expected her to sort of be that way if she's friendly now, then she regressed. Too many "scary" things happened, like turning...

    Friendly feral- then not friendly?

    I recently took in a feral TNR'd female that was in my backyard at odd hours during the day, even during the coldest of mornings. She would always clean out my food and even when I fed her from my window she didn't run away. She didn't look like she had a successful food spot and was skinny. My...
