    Rescued wildy, seems to going backwards.

    Patience is paying off. Lots of quite praise, allowing him to have his safe space, led to a little hand feeding, and a cautious on finger head stroke. Then all of a sudden tonight he pushed right in to my hand for a full on smooch and half rolled over letting me give him a gentle belly rub and...

    Rescued wildy, seems to going backwards.

    As suggested I tried a toy...he swiped at it very aggressively so I droped that idea for now. I went in to top up his food and he has moved from his tiny hiding place and has taken up residence on top of his cage. I've had a chat to him and put his food up there with him and left him alone...

    Rescued wildy, seems to going backwards.

    We rescued a Tom cat that had been living under a local farmhouse a couple of weeks ago. We know it's been caught before, neutered and released, and that it's been under the house for about a year. Had him checked and scanned for microchip. He's healthy and the vet thinks about 18 months to 2...

    Goodnight Eric, my little lion man

    Thank you. He loved sitting on my shoulders. Was always climbing up to see what I was doing. He was a beaten up smelly cat when we took him in. He was full of scratches, had fur missing a his ears were torn from being roughed up by other toms. I spent two weeks on the floor with him trying to...

    New feral, what now

    We received a new feral cat a few days ago. He had been living under a farmhouse for quite a while. We have him in a large dog crate and he seems comfortable. On day 2 I was able to stroke him and while he doesn't seem to mind me stroking his head, ears, paws, he still seems to be frightened and...
