think her playfulness is due to her being around six months old and having learned about play over the past month by me trying so hard to get her to play lol. She didn't understand it at all until it clicked last week. It's nice to see her coming out of her shell even if she's not ready to...

Hello! Cali is settling into the bedroom well, playing with toys and she loves watching out the window at night. She and my other cat, Becca, are basically ignoring each other through a tall gate. She still hides from me although I did test out petting her with a feather toy and she really...

Thank you for the reminder! I did remove the top of her cave bed so she only really has one cat condo to stay partially hidden. She was in the bed (only he head was hidden). Cali is a starer LOL. Almost impossible not to lock eyes with her. Am I supposed to stare back or ? I did and...

12/12/2024 update (Day 22): Cali is now out of the playpen and has the small bedroom to herself. She still hides from me in the various cave beds, condos and cat trees I have in the room and will not come out or show her face no matter how long I sit in there. I don't want to take all of the...

Lol, overthinking things is a problem. So after 10 days could I leave the flap open so she can come out to investigate? Still leave the playpen in there until she's comfortable outside it. What am I looking for in her behavior that would mean she's ready to move to the full room? Thank you...

P.S. Yes, she is a feral. I have seen her outside since she was a kitten but made the assumption that she was someone's pet. I really wasn't paying attention until it start to get cold. I live in Minnesota and knew there was a small window of opportunity given the cold coming, I knew she was...

I really thought I was well prepared but I ended up returning the enclosures I had and ordering a different one. Of course the one time I needed something delivered on time it didn't get here so I was left with the 62" x 62" by 36" play pen I had bought originally thinking I would do the...

P.S. She's not trying to get out of the play pen at all. Just hiding and sleeping.

Ok, I trapped Callie and she's now 6 days post spay and currently residing in a large dog playpen in a separate bedroom in the house. She sleeps most of the time, is eating and using the litterbox all of which are fantastic! She still hides when I'm around although for a brief period today she...

Hello, long story short is I am planning on trapping and bringing in a young female feral cat next Wed a.m. I've been getting the cat used to going in and out of the trap and have a feeding schedule so I feel comfortable with that. This is the first time I've ever tried to domesticate a feral...
