    Need Advice/moral Support For Our Rescue

    What a great story. I am definitely a cat person, we have 2 of our own, but first time rescuer (we are currently fostering 3 kittens I found in our backyard) and am learning right alongside you! It sounds like you're doing fantastic! I'm sure you saved Miry's life by picking her up off the...

    Socializing Feral Kittens - Is Feeling Like There Is No Hope Is Par For The Course?

    Thanks Everyone, I know it is still early so I will give it some time. Initially I was planning to TNR these kids as I did with the Mama, but after I caught them, a few people were like "They're babies! They can totally be tamed". Of course I want to give them a chance at a loving home. Though...

    Socializing Feral Kittens - Is Feeling Like There Is No Hope Is Par For The Course?

    I'm a newbie here. But after reading everything I could find on Google for the last week about TNR and socializing feral kittens, I wound up here, and it looks to be a great resource!
