Thank you! I posted a picture on my post just now :).

I have been gone for a few years... maybe more than that, so I feel the need to make this post. I have been looking for an active cat forum to be part of since the one I was at for a long time is not as active as it used to be. Anyways... my name is Zach. I am a certified cat behavior...

This must have been the 50th foster or more I have done, and she was probably the one I liked most out of all of them. But knew that I could not keep a 3rd cat due to staying in an apartment, college, and so on. And even if I stayed at home.. my mom had thyroid cancer and had to have her thyroid...

He is actually really wanting out of the cage. He rolled over and was playing with my other cat through the gate but backed into his taxi once I 3 inches near. I was tempted to let him out... but not yet, I know. 

He actually hasn't been fighting at all. All those injuries were actually from charging the trap :(. Probably all the dogs barking spooked him. As far as kittens, surprisingly I have seen kittens all year long around here. But maybe I should get him neutered so he doesn't spray if I decide to...

I don't think he is an adult by looking at him up close. AC thought he is about 5 months old (give or take). so if he was socialized as a kitten, there still might be a chance?

Thank you for your advice. I appreciate the support and extensive overview that you gave on handling and taming them. I dewormed him before bringing him home today. Trying to think of a good way to deflea him without getting bitten. If you have any suggestions for that, let me know. I added...

I have had good success in the past with socializing feral kittens, however I haven't ever tried with one this big. I am asking a very important opinion and need yours.  I can do one of the following: A) Socialize the cat in the cage picture below or  B)Allow the cat to free roam the...

Hopefully this fits in this section. I have fostered a lot of cats and kittens from the humane society here. Recently I have been fostering mostly sick kittens and sick cats that come in periodically. I foster about 3-4 at a time, monthly. I have an isolation/quarantine setup in the downstairs...

I am fostering a 12 week old kitten with upper respiratory. I was prescribed antibiotics to treat him with. Clavamox for twice a day for ten days. Today I missed a dose due to unforeseen circumstances, something I have never done before.  The first dose I have been giving at 6:30 am. I go to...

Kitten is starting to sleep in other places and not hiding much anymore. The only problem is with approaching him and picking him up, he still wants to run. But we are getting there - little by little. 

Thank you for the advice! I do have several crinkle tunnels laying around that are pretty big. I'll try that! Here is a picture of the kitten today! He walked all the way from his hiding spot to my room to eat. And he then fell asleep on my bed! Still doesn't like me moving toward him but likes...
