That is such a wonderful post. I have felt the exact same way. Nothing compares to all of the "firsts" when working with a feral cat. It is the most wonderful feeling! Thank you for those wonderful words of encouragement!
M maggiedemi - It does not sound ridiculous, and the truth is that it's great advice. Cats do seem to "pick up" on happy vibes, and trying to get that excitement to rub off is a great way to help the introduction process along.Try talking in an excited happy voice when you bring her brother kitty to see her. Like "here's your brother!". It sounds ridiculous, but that's what I did, except I said "here's your boyfriend/girlfriend!" I think they pick up on the happy/excited/positive vibes.
