I absolutely love what you’ve written alongside your beautiful cats. I second all that you said about not ever dumping your pets — every shelter and rescue where I live (S FL) is bursting at the seams, and it’s heartbreaking. I also love the fact that your feral is still shy years later and you don’t mind. I, too, have one-time ferals. I have 13 of them inside! If anyone comes into my house (rarely, as even my friends don’t want to be in my animal-filled home), almost every cat disappears. There are three to four who will allow themselves to be seen and touched. I’ve had two over the years who wouldn’t allow me to touch them at all! Anyway, your cats are gorgeous. Tuxedos are wonderful. Thanks for sharing.
