My vet labled my cats feral 3 years ago. But they totally are not feralish with me at all and have never been . But they are extremely shy around everyone else. Completely hiding and not coming out. They were very bad, growling and hissing when they went to the vet. Now when its vet time, we have to cage them for the vet to come to us, but they are more skittish with no growling or hissing.
Is a feral cat always considered feral for the rest of his life ? Or do they go from feral to semi feral and then to domestic ?
Or say you find a feral and socialize him to where he is not afraid of people anymore, is he considred no longer feral ?
It has always confused me why, even from the beginning of getting Easy, she was totally sweet and not shy at all, with me, but to my vet she was called feral.
Just looking for some understanding from the some experts.
