I'm currently fostering a feral kitty in addition to caring for my own cat.
My cat was bottle-fed and hand-raised by me and my cousins since she was about three weeks old. She's a giant cuddle bug with people but not with cats. Feral kitty LOVES my cat, but I can't figure out if she likes me or not.
Often, when I'm petting my cat (who loves it), the feral kitty will walk up and start purring. She will rub against things as if I'm petting her vicariously, through my cat, and yet will NOT let me actually touch her. Sometimes she even purrs when I put my hand close to her without my cat in the vincinity, and yet, again, won't let me get close enough to pet her.
She also loves to roll around and cuddle with my recently-worn clothes. Not just any clothes, but clothes I just took off, and especially my shoes. Does this have any significance?
