It's a HUGE cardboard box that I got from Family Dollar. It's spacious enough that they all can fit in very comfortably and it's also super tall so they can't climb or jump out of it. It's just a matter of getting them all at once because they don't always show up together. The Animal Shelter...

Hey guys, It's now or never. I only got ONE of the feral kittens I've been feeding to allow me to touch it and pet it. I even picked it up a couple of times and it likes to rub against my legs and show me it's belly. The other ones still do not let me get close enough to touch them but I must...

Thanks RTR for the advice. Hhmmmm......meet and greet and choose who I will allow to adopt them. Never considered that BUT it will definitely help me sleep and breathe easier knowing that I placed them in good homes and got a feel of the adopters. Oh yeah... Yep, this is EXACTLY how they...

Stefan this is really great advice (and insight). I find your posts and advice to be very, very helpful. Thank You.

Thank You CatLover73 and DreamRose for the feedback. Much appreciated. And DreamRose I actually do feel very lucky to be loved by so many cats. I adore them just as much as they adore me.

I have a question to ask about head butting. My cat, Brownie, does this with me all the time. She loves to head butt my face and chin and I love returning the gesture, petting her, giving her attention and letting her curl up in my lap afterwords. As far as I know, head butting is usually scent...

Yes, they do. And I fell right in line like a perfect sucker too.

WOW! Thanks a million Stefan for the very helpful advice. I will certainly talk to my wife about it so we can try to implement your strategy. And thank you Shadow for that video. Now I understand and don't have to be (too) afraid of dealing with Tom and his thuggish ways.  

There is a colony of of feral kittens that I feed on my back porch. Five kittens total; an orange and white one, another one is like tan or beige and white, a smokey grey kitty, the fourth one is grey with black stripes tabby and the fifth kitty is a tuxedo. Earlier today the orange and white...

Thank You RTR. Yeah, I have made up my mind that I want to keep him. He is in my house sleeping like a baby right now. He's such a sweet, adorable and well mannered guy. What's not to like? And I'm hoping that he's already neutered. He hasn't sprayed at all and he's twice used the litter box...

Thanks for the advice and guidance Stefan and Ondine, Tom and mom will be a big challenge. Mom NEVER lets me get near her and she has been a stray cat since like forever. And Tom.....oh boy, where do I begin with Tom? He can be dangerous. And he's pretty big too with muscles. He's built like he...

Hi Folks, There is a stray cat that my family and I call Tom that we've been feeding for the past 2 1/2 years now. Within the past two weeks Tom has decided to bring his offspring to the backyard barbecue; 5 feral kittens which are obviously his offspring and we know who the mother is as well...

To continue from my opening post, I have been feeding a stray cat for about 2 years now. I actually think it's been slightly longer than 2 years. He's a huge and muscular grey tabby with black stripes that we call Tom. Tom has impregnated Brownie before we got her spayed. But long story short...

Greetings friends, It's been such a long time since I've been here interacting with you all. Before I get to the purpose of my thread I just want to let you all know that I STILL have my Brownie-kins and she's STILL just as spoiled as ever. Now, as for my dilemma; Over the weekend my 10 year...

Thank You everyone for your feedback. I have read all that you said and will keep it all in mind as I move forward with the little guy. Thanks Again. Regards.
