Winter is one of the two TNR'd cats we recently brought in due to increasing outdoor dangers lately. I would call him a semi-feral though he does seem to like me pretty well. It's a relationship that's still being worked on and I see improvements all the time. He'll often let me groom and pet him, and I can lift him up for at least a little bit. (Been practicing this a bit at a time for when we get to the vet.)
Winter finally has gotten comfortable enough with me in the room to want to relax for a cat nap, but as soon as he closes his eyes and starts to relax his front legs start to shake. They look almost like spams with the intensity but it doesn't seem to bother him at all. When he wakes up, the legs stop shaking.
I'm kinda panicking about what could be going on. I've been having to save up for them to get a vet visit. My plan was to save up to a certain amount over what was calculated at the vet's office so if there was a surprise additional cost that I could cover it. But if there's something severely wrong I'm not sure how I'd be able to afford it. And since he's semi-feral and only likes me, I don't think it'd be possible to find him a new home that could pay for it. It'd break my heart, too. I'm hoping that somehow it's not something really serious and just something I hadn't seen a cat do before.
