  • We rescued a feral kitten whose mom/siblings had been run over by a car. He was shivering and almost dead from thirst/starvation when we found him. We were out riding bikes and brought him back to our house intending to give him to a shelter, but he was so cute and funny that we fell in love with him and ended up keeping him. He play-fights with the cat we had before getting him, but they get along pretty well over all. He is now two years old and we love him so much!

  • A feral kitten climbed into a hole under my vehicle and rode 30 miles! All we could hear was crying but we couldn't find him. During the wee hours I laid in the street with a flashlight and saw two glowing eyes but he wouldn't come near me. Finally I lured him with tuna. That was a year ago. Ari is now part of the family. Just a gorgeous, affectionate tabby.

    • I did something like that with two different feral kittens. The first one was hiding in my yard and I managed to sneak up and grab him by the scruff of the neck. I wrapped him up and brought him in the house and just held him in my lap even though he was struggling and after maybe 15 minutes he started purring and I kept holding him for another 15 minutes. I used to raise horses and I learned about imprinting from a vet. With a new foal you just touch them all over and if it takes say 17 times before the foal gets used to you touching it’s ears, you keep doing it for 17 more times. So I did this with the kitten and he’s now the friendliest and most loving cat I've ever had. The second kitten, all black, showed up on my deck on a cold Halloween night, crying and shivering. I grabbed her and brought her in and did the same thing. She’s so happy to have a home! She loves being held and patted but she’s nervous with my hands so I’ll try hand feeding her. Thanks!

  • When I was a kid, I ended up accidentally socialized a feral kitten in the neighborhood we lived in. I had no idea what I was doing at the time as I was very young. I just kept feeding, petting, and playing with him. Every day he'd come back for more attention and food. Sometimes with other cats from his litter and around the neighborhood. There came a point where he wanted to come into our house and my mom wasn't sure that was a good idea because of our other cats. But I let him in because hearing him cry was upsetting me. He got along well with our other cats but he did end up having fleas. We took care of that though and he became a part of the family. We took him with us when we moved from one side of the US to the other side. He was my first cat and he was a very good cat.

    • It wasn't hatred, but fear. If you watch Frannie's eyes all through the vid, you notice the pupils get narrower as she becomes less afraid. Along with ear position and tail movement, a cat's eyes tell you a lot about how she's feeling. Oh, and the paw-kneading also tells you that she's getting more comfy.

  • A few years ago a feral cat hid 4 baby kittens in my mechanic shop, soon afterward I saw the mother cat dead on the busy highway that was near my house, so I started putting kitten food and water out for them and fortunately they were big enough to eat it even though they were terrified of me, one kitten a tom was more bold than the rest and he tamed down quickly, so I put an ad in the paper and he got adopted, then another kitten tamed down so that one got adopted too, then the third kitten was also adopted, until a little female kitten was left, she was the most scared of all the litter and I thought she would never ever be tame enough to hold her and pet her, but to my surprise after her siblings were all gone she quickly bonded to me and she even climbed up my leg all the way to my shoulder one time(that hurt! because she had sharp claws). But amazingly she became a very friendly and loving kitten and she turned out to be the very best of the whole litter and she also got adopted. All 4 feral kittens found homes.

  • I just really want to thank TNR efforts because when we took in a stray from the streets we found that she had been neutered and I wonder if her experience with TNR helped her not be nearly as feral as she could have been, (and it was a relief to find her neutered). She was still super skiddish, but, the moment I made first contact with her after months and months of feeding her, she seemed to recognize the gesture and bonded immediately. She lives a happy and warm life with us now, and I couldn't ask for a better cat in all the world, she's the sweetest, most gentle and loving cat I've ever experienced, and I used to be pretty terrified of cats before her. She's not at all how she was out there in the wild, the way these cats truly transform is so amazing. I actually didn't know the term "TNR" before this video, thank you for such an informative video!

One of my resident cats is a former feral, who was caught by my neighbors when she was 6 weeks old. My local shelter friends agreed to back her vetting and I fostered her. She went from spicy to sweet in just 3 weeks. She was such an amazing kitten by then that we adopted her and today she is a fabulous family member. She has the most friendly and loving personality of all of our resident cats. She never leaves my side. I cannot imagine my life without her. ❤️

She did not like being around people at all, but she just walked right up to me the first time I saw her. If I moved she ran, but that was a great sign to us. We adopted her and dedicated a lot of time to showing her we love her and the house is just as much hers as ours. Now she greets each of us ever morning with a loud squeak, constantly begs us for pets, and I actually have to tell her to get off my lap rather than beg her to hop on these days. I absolutely love her, and her little ear notch that gives us a chance to tell her origin story.

  • You are a wonderful human ambassador for the whole lot of us animal lovers out here ❤ The level of patience and effort to work through primal fears is notable. We can hardly imagine, as humans who live in a world of comfort and convienance, what it might be like to be yanked from the only world you know, and TRUST that you will be taken care of by large foreign creatures.

  • It's funny to see the super-conflicted emotions of a feral kitten. Danger! Human hand! But the food is so good! Petting by human hands feels good!
