Hi everybody,
I've recently started feeding 3 feral kittens which actually started as a pack of 5 but I'm not sure if they're all from the same litter (One was run over and another one disappeared and now they are 3). One of them is very friendly and vocal. I can even lightly touch him even though he's still a bit afraid of me. I trapped all 3 a few weeks ago for TNR.
These past few days, I've been seeing many wounds on the back of the friendly one. I also saw one wound on the side of one of the other cats but certainly not as many as on the friendly one. I think it's one or several feral bullies because I saw one attack one of mine while they were eating. I'm planning on bringing it to the vet but I need to find a way to stop the attacks. I've read that half-feral cats can be attacked by colonies because they lack survival skills.
I would take him in if my son did not have asthma and a mild allergy to cats. I already have 2 indoor cats, one hand-fed and one shelter rescue, so I'm dreaming of finding a home for it.
Any idea how to help that poor little guy?
Thanks,
Rich.
