Hi,

I found this link and it is pretty good. It is about feral cat behavior vs house cats.

Glad you found something interesting on the site!

Both the www.SaveSamoa.org and www.StrayPetAdvocacy.org sites grew out of a rescue that a number of us at TCS got involved with because of a negative newspaper article written about a feral that was bothering a neighborhood in Arizona. Christy (okeefcl), Heidi (valanhb), and Kass (Russian Blue) did the work pulling them together, doing the research and writing a number of articles, and Heidi is webmaster for the sites.

That was an intresting article. It makes me wonder though because my kitten does have some of those traits like excesive cleaning, plays rough, and will sit in my lap, and lay in bed with me for hours, when I can't get my house cats to do that. But then he meows constantly! So I kind of wonder if he got lost, the previous owner couldn't handle him anymore so dropped him off somewhere, or if maybe the owners through his Momma out when the found out she was pregnant, it's sad but some people can be that cruel. I'm just glad he's here with me now! I love him, and he let's me know daily that he loves me just as much.
