THESE ARE TWO OF THE LAST THREE KITTENS, THIS IS OBOY, THE ORANGE ONE AND BEBOP THE BLACK ONE.

I know I write a lot about these feral cats, but I live with them every day and have had them here for almost nine years now. And I am excited to see that more and more places and cities are having the spay and neuter clinics to get these poor feral cats fixed. This is so much better than killing them all. Many places just kill them because supposedly they cause a lot of problems. There also are many organizations that are doing what they call Trap, Neuter, and Return. . They also are giving them their shots while they are spay and neutering them.

One of those organizations is the Beaufort Community Cat Project. The Beaufort Community Cat Project is an all-volunteer organization advocating non lethal methods to reduce the free-roaming cat population using Trap-Neuter-Return. And I am sure there are lots of other organizations that are working really hard to help this feral cat which is such a good thing.

A feral cat is really untamed domestic cats that are born in urban, suburban, or rural areas and basically anywhere that people reside. They should not be confused with wild cats, but they are cats that are not around humans and so do not trust them and so they act wild. I myself have tamed at least 10 feral cats and they all turned out entirely different. Some are very tame and some are still somewhat on the wild side.

Of course if you can get the kittens from these cats when they are very young, they are so much easier to tame. I took in four kittens that were found in the hood of a car where the mother had abandoned them, and they were only 4 weeks old and they have lived in my extra bedroom for almost six months now, and they are super cats. They are very sweet and nice cats now.

THIS IS TABBY, THE THIRD FERAL KITTEN.

Another thing is that since they are born outside to a Momma kitty that is used to killing other animals to survive, unless of course she finds me, it is very hard for them to ever be inside. I didn’t get to touch the last three kittens until they were 5 months old, so they are still a little wild. They will let me pat them when I am feeding them and I can pick them up also while they are eating and that is how I got them to the spay and neuter clinic. But I don’t think they will ever be cuddly. I am just glad they are alive. And the biggest problem with the feral cats or kittens is finding them homes. But at least these can stay here as long as I can afford to feed them.
