I totally agree. It's a great sound.

Awwww. You guys are so great!  Thanks for the advice and tips.  It just didn't occur to me that Gabby had options outside to get away from the dogs if she felt threatened, but now, not many choices.  Both dogs are very calm around her, but one is more curious than the other.  Will keep them out...

Hi all - just a quick update on Gabby.  So far, all is continuing to go well.  Poor Gabby seems to be a bit bored.  I would love to let her out of the computer room to roam around the house, but I really don't want to give her that freedom only to take it back when my sister gets here with her...

Hi and as others have said, thank you for caring for these beautiful critters.   My story is a little similar to yours - I won't go into all the details, but I will tell you, we're about 2-1/2 weeks into taming the feral I was feeding for about 3 years.  She trusts me and does come out when I'm...

What an incredible story! So glad to read such positive updates.  About your door issues - I've been told once a feral or a stray have made a successful transition inside, having been on both sides of the door, it's no question which side they prefer. So, maybe Tripod is getting as far away from...

Gloria - thanks so much for your pictures, that puts it all together for me now. Thank you also for posting Gabby's picture. I wasn't sure how to do it and ran out of time. I see now there is an "insert picture" icon that should work pretty nifty. lol Thank you though. Gabby will be (is) an...

Hi all - just an update on how the vet visit went.  In a word - SPLENDID!  Gabby is the picture of health according to the vet.  She's got nice, white, sharp teeth, no parasites, no worms, nothing negative at all.  They gave her a bath, clipped her nails, got off that nasty smell, put on the...

Hi all - just an update. All is still going very well.  The really foul odor seems to have abated for now, for which I am extremely grateful.  Will still have the vet exam her glands though, as I'd hate for that smell to return. @Ritz - I guess it's normal. I'm using the clumping litter, so a...

Congratulations! What a great name and a much needed endeavor! Very best wishes to you!

You guys are all so sweet! Thanks for the words of encouragement. Vet appt is set for Tuesday, so will have to suffer through until then. Luckily the weather is nice enough that I can crack a window (not enough that she can get out thanks to the tip from Catmom5!), so that's something anyway...

Hi all - things are continuing to go well. Skittles (I'm not 100% on this yet, but we'll see ) is just as sweet as she can be.  At night, she's been waking us up every couple of hours - seems she's lonely and wants some company. I've indulged her each time, but I think this is a practice I will...

Hi all and thanks so much for the replies. After posting this morning, I got in touch with a local gal (who, ironically, works for the same place I do). We had a very long conversation and she has fostered several ferals as well as owns a few herself. She said basically the same things you did...

Hi all - Kelley here and I'm brand new to this forum but looking forward to reading all that I can.  However, I have a quick question as I'm about to bring one of my ferals into my home, but need some advice before I do. Quick background - I'd been feeding two ferals, likely siblings, for a...
