Introducing Doris and Blue Eyes, our two gorgeous semi-feral kitties

View media item 197392
~~I'm so glad to have found this site! In November last year, a semi-feral cat began living under our verandah with her 4 kittens. We trapped everyone, desexed mum, and fostered the kittens for a month until they were ready for rehoming. Now we are trying to befriend mum (Doris), and also a stray friend of hers (Blue Eyes) who has just turned up too. At first we thought Blue Eyes was a neighbour's cat pinching food, but then realised she was there all the time. We're taking her into the vet on Friday for a health check, confirm gender etc - fingers crossed that we can catch her and that she's not pregnant! Doris was very wild until a few weeks ago, when she started rubbing round my legs. Now she spends quite a lot of time inside, sits on my lap, and plays obsessively with balls and dice, but is still very timid and jumpy. So most of my interest is in the Caring for strays and ferals forum. I have never done anything like this before and have so many questions :-)

Hi there welcome along to TCS  

They are both so gorgeous!! And any questions you have fire away we can either help you or point you in the right direction!!

Hi there, welcome to the site.  How wonderful that this family found your home, and the the kittens have now moved to furever homes as a result.  I wish you well with your continued efforts to befriend the mom. and now her friend who is joining her.  Doris and Blue Eyes are beautiful cats.  Good luck with the planned vet visit for Blue Eyes.

I look forward to seeing you around the site.  I am not usually found around Ferals and Strays but hopefully our paths will cross and I will see more of your gorgeous cats.

Hi, welcome to TCS!  Your cats are beautiful.  

Welcome to TCS!  Your kitties are very adorable.
