Well,the reason I was trying to hurry with her is I knew she would soon be reproducing and there I would be trying to deal with more kittens.I knew if she had kittens that I would be the one that ended up with them too cause I wouldn't be able to give them away,and I didn't need anymore.
Good luck and keep us updated.

Wow Sicy,
Prego looks just like my Mittens. I didn't even know there was such a thing as a snowshoe siamese.

Learn something new everyday.

Sorry, just found this thread.

vettech- I understood your reasoning behind why you did that. I have snatched plenty of cats before their time, just because they needed a vet so badly. All I meant for sicy is in this situation, she needs to relax and not want it so badly. Once she relaxes and doesn't crave the contact, it comes rather quickly.

Prego has graduated to just batting the feather, to actually grabbing it and rolling over on her back
She was doing this for about 10 minutes while I was holding the feather. I consider this a sign of trust right? To expose their belly.

She then came up on her own to sniff my hand.. but then backed away. Such a cutie she is.

I just found this thread.

She is ADORABLE and the progress that you've made is fantastic.

Oooh....she sniffed. So close but yet so far. Stay patient. The reward is well worth it. You're doing a TERRIFIC job.

Small update???? That's SMALL????

Sicy! That is HUGE! Well, in the world of a feral it is.
If she's sniffing on her own, she trusts you enough to get that close to her. AND she's letting her guard down to play with you!

What seem like baby steps to us are giant leaps of faith for her.

Really?? Thanks!! I guess I'm already so used to playing with her that I didnt consider this THAT huge but still a great improvement! The rolling over on her back is what really impressed me. To me it showed me that she felt comfortable enough to 'let loose' and enjoy her playtime without worrying about me too much ...

Prego looked so beautiful today I couldnt help but snap a few shots.





And then.. both cats were in the bedroom so I had Jim close the door as I tested the waters to see if Prego would come inside.. guess what, she did

I think that is so exciting. You know she is just so beautiful. She has the most beautiful blue eyes, and the cutest face. It's like one side of her face is like a regular Siamese cat, and the other side is like a Torti Siamese. She is so precious.

Oh, this is indeed lovely news, Sicy! An officially three-kitty household, soon? Wouldn't THAT be lovely. You've done so well with her -- seems she thinks so, too.
