Is her story somewhere on this site? I'd love to hear how you hot her & how she came around and realized hoomins can be good.
Black Friday - the second-wildest feral I've ever known, and untouchable for years - crowded against me on "her" sofa:

Mer.kitten - Nope; one of these days I'll post it to the Fervour For Ferals thread, I suppose. Nothing much to tell, really. Trap Mom; neighbour traps Daughter; original quarters too small for long-term socialising; build big stone Cat Palace, and voilà - everything works out, easy peasey.Is her story somewhere on this site?

Sweet pictures of two very lovely ladiesView attachment 260475 Sombra has imposed our cuddling and kneading View attachment 260473 timetable: a) first thing IN THE MORNING when I wake up and I'm still in bed and when trying to read the morning news b) when SHE wakes up FROM HER AFTERNOON nap and expects to find me sitting on the couch.
I dont' think that position lasted particularly long. that was an aggressive flop even for moto. lol. he's the only short hair in the house. He'll die of cold if he doesn't flop on the long hairs.Touching photos thefiresidecat! And the last one looks like a cat with two heads!
I'm sorry I didn't see this sooner. Sometimes I just scroll through and look at the pics. Anyways, I had the yard treated for fleas Saturday, and Sunday afternoon he got sick from it. I spent Sunday night at the emergency vet with him. They said his symptoms were mild compared to what they usually see, and that he would be OK. He got some fluids and a bath. He's improved a lot, but I'm still concerned. He's got a twitch in his head and is constantly shaking his head and twitching his ears. I've been sick about it. I may take him to my vet tomorrow and have his ears looked at to make sure something else is not going on now.How is your black-nosed outside problem child doing?

Aside from that, he has become the biggest sweetheart I've ever known. He's getting along much better with the other two outdoor cats. He just loves a cuddle. I can completely smother him with both arms and he is totes comfortable with it. I just love this cat now.

Yes, I took him back to the vet on Friday and had his ears looked at and cleaned. He’s doing very well now. Here he is hanging out with Mama Kitty. They were enemies over the summer. That was heartbreaking. It took me two years to make friends with her, then she had to sneak into the yard to eat. Sometimes I didn’t see her for three days. What a horrible summer it was with a fleafestation from hell and everything else. Things are much better now.OH kittypa how precious!
