Long, long overdue update. Apologies for the mega-bump of over 4 years! I hope someone is still around to read it, but I'd feel bad to come back to this site with new questions without wrapping up this thread. And it's been an amazing journey so far! We kept working with Qadirah on a more...

I'm glad things seem to be working out well for the little orphan and his new family!

Wow catwoman707, it's so wonderful what you're doing for these cats and kittens. Too bad you couldn't save the first ones. They were too far gone. I hope things work out well with your feral momma and newborns. And their two day old foster child/sibling of course! All you can do is keep an eye...

She is so cute! You did a great job socializing her! Thanks for keeping up a blog, it is very good to read how you approached her socialization!

That's great, congratulations! And way to go Jimmy! I love your pics. The enclosure looks so good!

Update: You won't believe what Qadirah did today, so I'm going to show you.  While Rob was working with Ruby and Reba, Qadirah made an unexpected move...

I would like to introduce to you too: Our resident and foster cats of 2011! All of the fosters of 2011 have found happy forever homes! I would like to share another video with you. Here is our resident kitty Phoebe, being held down by foster cat Phoebe for a few intense moments of...

Thank you for all your responses! Abbysmom, thanks for embedding my video rather than just taking it out, I wasn't aware of the fact that I broke a rule. Will keep that in mind for future video's! My hubby Rob strokes all the way to the tail on purpose. He knows he's going slightly out of her...

Thanks everyone! I feel at home already!

Hi all, Since it is late now and I'm very tired after last night, I will reply to you in more detail tomorrow. Thank you so much for replying though! Just a quick post now to show you a video of Qadirah's latest session with us. We have been having sessions with her ever since we took her in...

Hi everyone, I'm Resie, a dutch girl who immigrated to Canada last year. I joined this forum because it has a subforum dedicated to feral/stray cats. Since I am a foster home for a rescue organization, starting to specialize in socializing shy/fearful/semisocial cats and kittens, I'd like to...

Hi StefanZ! Thanks for your post, it is very helpful! I'm glad there are people here who can give feedback. It's 5.35 AM now and I have been awake for 1½ hours. Ruby takes after her sister even more than we thought. At exactly 4 AM she started to cry. With Reba this happened for 3 or 4 nights...

Thanks for the quick reaction, LDG! I didn't really write much about Qadirah's situation yet because I wanted to figure out if I came to the right place to ask for advice. Seems I have! Qadirah has been living in the main foster home, which has lots of other cats, and volunteers coming in...

Hi, my name is Resie and I am new here. I signed up because this forum has a strays/ferals subforum and I like having (or giving) some feedback every once in awhile. I used to be a foster home in The Netherlands for kittens, some of which had never seen humans and had to be socialized from...
