We have a feral girl named Al. We have been caring for her since May 2006 when she was born (along with her sister and brother and mother). Out of all of our ferals, she is the only one we are still not allowed to touch - AT ALL. They were all fixed and given their shots and vaccines at 5 mos. of age (along with mom).
I just went outside to make sure they had fresh water and to give them a little morning snack and Al's eye looks terrible. She has major goo stringing out of it. I don't know if she may have accidentally scratched it or if she was fighting (she's quite the little scrapper) but her eye is also swollen. She has it opened, but I can see that she's uncomfortable.
She'll take food from my hand and she likes to weave in and out of my legs (all the while touching me), however, she won't let us touch her. The others can be picked up and carried around if that's what you want to do, but not Al!
I can't stand the fact that she may be suffering and won't let us help her. Is there something I can do for her?
