Feral Cat Rescuer
Is this not too cute? Look at little feral Oakley now! They just sent me this photo.
For those of you that don't know the story. We trapped Oakley in the park almost a year ago. When we took him in to be fixed, his owner now, came out and asked if she could keep him. Both Kevin & I were very hesitant since Oakley was by far one of the most wild ones we had trapped. You wouldn't believe it now!!
Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

Wow, that really wonderful
In certain countries they don't believe in ferals, i.e. they try to rehome all cats how ever wild.
I don't have enough experience to say one way or another but Oakley's adoption makes me wonder...What if all feral cats had patient understanding home, would they tame down ?

I don't know if all would, but I know it's possible to tame them. Most all our cats were feral at one time. We do have one, Blaze, that has not tamed up real well. He still acts very feral, but will on occasion let you pet him!Originally posted by PayItForward

I didn't realise your cats were ex-ferals too.
Wow you do such a wonderful job caring for your ferals/strays.

I agree it may depend on the age. My first cat Grisette was a feral of 4 months. She spent her first weeks at our house under the kitchen cupboard but was a very friendly cat later. She was the only cat who ever had babies while I was sitting close to her
And of course I made sure each of these babies found a good home.)
I am happy that Oakley is now such a cute Easter kitty

Yes! Look at the difference, this is when we first trapped him!
