Lisa: First of all, I am so sorry that you are having such a hard time with this.

I would definitely give them more time. It sounds like this lady is sensitive and caring when it comes to these ferals, just like you are!

I've read so many stories on this board about ferals that do a complete 180 when people least expect it . . . she may walk in the room tomorrow and they both be at her feet!

It's great that she's getting them used to her voice . . . and it sounds good to me that the one in the crate purrs when she's in the room . . . I'll bet that one will be the first to cave in to her!

Sounds like they want to be loved, just don't know how YET!

Please don't blame yourself for this! It may take some time, but they WILL be better off living inside with your co-worker!!! They just don't realize it yet! As long as they're eating & drinking, they'll be fine. And it really sounds like this lady is willing & able to bring them around.

It wouldn't hurt to say a little prayer for these two . . . I know they are scared but they're God's little creatures and he can calm their fears, just like he does ours.

Hang in there Lisa. I'm praying for you, your co-worker, and the babies today!!!
