    Socialising Older Ferals, Need Advice

    Hi! I have 2 adopted 2 feral girls from the shelter: Babs aged 5, who has been with me 1.5 years now, and Mirre aged 3, whom I got 1 year ago. They've settled in quite nicely and have become friends, but they are still very scared of humans. I've tried a lot of things to socialise them...

    How To Treat Scared/feral Cats For Fleas?

    My 2 semi-feral girls have been going outside for 3 weeks now and I recently discovered they have fleas. They are still quite scared of humans and won't come near me, or let me touch them. They are comfortable enough around me as long as I keep my distance. I've tried giving them Comfortis, ie...

    Cat Doesn't Eat Much, Still Gets Fat

    My 3.5 y/o rescue girl Babs was a tiny bit overweight when I got her, complete with floppy belly and juicy thighs... she got like this in the shelter, they said. She was feral when she came in, they spayed her and probably tried to tame her with food (but no luck). She's been with me for 3...

    Cat Lets Me Pet Her But She's Really Scared Of Me

    Hi! My pretty girl cats have been with me for almost 3 months now, I got them from a shelter. They've probably lived in the wild all their lives (one is 1.5 and the other is 3.5 y/o) and they're not comfortable with touching and petting. Babs, the elder grey/white cat, won't let me go near her...

    Are My Newly Adopted Cats Still Friends, Or?

I live in the Netherlands and I've adopted two gorgeous kitties, Babs and Kenzie, from the shelter about a month ago. I'm a first time cat owner so...
