Tonight I saw both of my ferals - not only did Tommy survive, but Lucy is home again. She looks good and, although cautious, didn't seem freaked out when she saw me and was talking to her. I just wanted to pick her up and love on her, but thought better.
Now I need advice on setting up for...
Some of you might remember when my feral, Tommy, was hit by a car this summer. I was sure he had been killed, especially when I couldn't find his body and no one had seen him. About 5 - 6 weeks ago I saw him hiding by the bird feeder in my back yard, looking very thin, but very much like my...
Some of you might remember my feral boy, Tommy, who was hit by a car this summer. I never found his body, even after much searching and posting flyers. Well, a couple of weeks ago, a black cat was in my backyard very late at night (triggered the security light) but, of course it would be hard to...
Tommy was hit by a car tonight. He was coming to eat, crossing the road and a car came speeding by and the neighbor heard a thump. He did get up and run off, although wobbly. I just spent an hour looking for him, but can't find him. I feel awful that he's been badly hurt and just suffering...

Tommy has been a different story. This spring and summer he's been kind of sporadic - sometimes he's here for several days in a row, then not for a few more days. I haven't...
I've been off for a while, but have been reading posts from time to time. Right now I'm feeling very depressed and frustrated.
Lucy has never come back - and I worry that she's not okay. That breaks my heart and I am angry at myself that she escaped in the first place.
Tommy is here very...
My feral boy, Tommy, is very street smart and stealth. Right now I have the food out next to the unset, open trap, and in the area where he ate all winter where the shelters are, but he refuses to go anywhere near it. I wondered if there are other cat smells on the trap - since it's a loaner...
I was sent to this site for help with my feral/semi-feral/stray cat, Lucy (that's her in my avatar). She started coming for food and shelter several months ago, but had always been very shy and took off if she saw me. Last Thursday I was able to trap her, get her to the humane society for...
