Our feral in taming, Lucy, last night before falling asleep there!!!

View media item 148883


Lucy a couple months ago before she started venturing further than the kitchen (that we knew of)


Lucy when we first caught her for the TNR program

(trying to get her into a carrier so we could catch more cats)

(just to see her pretty eyes)

And the Chippie and Thunder being their cute selves (7 months old now and getting fixed on the 13th with their one sister Annie!)







This is really how they are daily. They just cuddle and play and lick each other and purr their little heads off.

You have some beautiful furbabies! I love the pictures of Chippie and Thunder cuddling. So adorable. I want to hug them.

Thank you :) Those two love each other so much. We were only planning on keeping Thunder, but Chippie's owner never came to get her so we're "stuck" with her for life now since the other 2 people we offered her to didn't want her/had to think about it and never got back to us.

I just love how they always hug each other when cuddling!!! I've never seen two cats so bonded, but they are twins so it makes sense. Those two (along with their 2 other sisters who are happy in their homes) have been with us since they were 7 day old over heated abandoned babies and the most frustrating group we took care of but they all are so smart and Thunder plays fetch and eats ANYTHING!!! (she stole fruit from my mom and ate it then went back for more!) I swear she's more dog than cat

A couple more pictures of Lucy from Tuesday. I was only a couple feet away from her and if it wasn't for one of the dogs coming into the kitchen, she would've had her nose to my finger again!

All's well that ends well, huh? If those two love cuddling so much, they probably wouldn't have wanted to be separated anyway!


Lucy's adorable! She actually walked into a cat trap as a stray? Is she semi-feral, or just shy?

Thunder and Chippie are so adorable, seeing them together like that actually makes one feel better about life. :)

They were actually the only 2 out of that litter who never bonded with another kitten and we thought would do best as single cats. Now that they're the only kittens, they're impossible to seperate! And yup, she went in there after some KFC chicken and some tuna fish. She was born and raised by the ferals next door, but she doesn't act like a feral (which is why we decided to tame her, because she was more shy than wild unlike the others we caught) she's just a timid, but very curious and playful 2 year old kitty and I can't wait until the first time we get to pet her with her concent (when she got released in the house she cornered herself and to avoid her breaking a lamp we had to touch her and she is SOOOOOOO SOFT!!!! also she's short haired in the summer with a poofy tail, but seems to get a very fluffy winter coat)

Don't they?! How could anybody stay mad/sad while looking at those two? But they're not always that cute. They can be CRAZY!!! I'm going to feel so bad in a couple weeks while they're recovering from being fixed, but at least they'll be fixed at the same time so they're not harassing the other while they're trying to heal

Hang in there with Lucy.  I know she will come around.  She is a beautiful cat.  Your other two are darling.

She spends most of her time up in the living room and kitchen now and sleeps knowing we're there and cleans herself, makes eye contact, plays with toys and other cats. From reading everybody's posts about once the finally were able to pet their ferals and them loving it, I can't wait until Lucy lets us pet her! We're so close, but definitely not pushing it. She even almost ate a treat from me!
