Okay I took some pictures and videos today of the feral family that my mum (and me, I buy food for them too!) takes care of in her back yard. They're still with us, living in their two houses built for them at the back of the garden behind the greenhouse.

Well I took some pics and videos whilst they were having their tea today, they were being very sweet and cute. We just love them. They will come inside on the window sill if the window is open, but as soon as you approach jump straight out back onto the wall outside. Fatty will let you scratch his neck if you're inside the window, the others won't though, and the mum cat is the most timid. But we love them to bits!

So some pictures:

A family shot: Mummy,Fatty and Hearth Shaped Boy (Heart for short!) together waiting for their tea.

Dad cat Sylvester, he comes right inside the kitchen, he must've been owned at one time, but he is tempremental, sometimes he'll let you smoothe him, other times he swipes at you and is scary and grumpy.

Aren't they just the sweetest, and probably fattest ferals anywhere in the world! Lol

THEY ARE INDEED VERY FOTUNATE CATS TO HAVE SUCH A LOVELY YARD TO PLAY IN , AND TO HAVE SUCHKIND HEARTED CAT LOVERS TO FEED THEM, AND KEEP AN EYE ON THEM.
THE PORCH CATS ARE REASONABLY WELL FED, BUT ARE NOT AS YET AS FRIENDLY ALTHOUGH SPUNKY MOOSE THE DEUCE HAS STARTED MEEEEOWING FOR HIS FOOD AND ALLOW ME TO PET HIM.
WELL DONE, FELLOW STARY CAT FEEDERS.
POUNCER ROCCALNO WISHES SHE HAD SUCH GOOD WEATHER, ITS COLD IN CATADA!!!

What beautiful kitties they are. A couple of my ferals are big and sassy. Doesn't it make you feel wonderful when they allow you touch them. They are blessed to have you guys taking care of them.

Hehe, Mom is not to sure about that box thing is she? The boys let their curiosity take over! How wonderful that they have decided to stay put where you can work with them, feed them and be sure of their safety. Well, more sure than if they came and went. Great videos!

What lovely photos of your ferals. Glad to see that they are all doing so well. I remember those days of sitting in the middle of winter with the door open, trying to entice the little devils to eat in the kitchen. :D
