I've been posting about the progress that I've been making with my feral boy Lucky Pierre over the last few years. If you want to read about it, the latest thread is here:

I will use this thread to post pictures around his continued socialization as time goes on.
Here is one of his early visits to the house a few years back. He liked the cave like feeling of the cat tent:
Here he is over last winter when he started venturing inside more often:
And 2 days ago, making himself at home on the cat tree in the kitchen by the windows. He stayed inside the house the better part of 48 hours:
I've started to physically interact with him more often. He loves to be brushed, and I've started to pick him up to hold him and give him scritches. He was a lot more calm here until DH walked over (carefully) to take a picture then got squirmy, but you get the gist of it. He's funny - I can hold him and he will purr and purr, then he glances over at my face and gets squirmy (what's that human doing with me?). Eye blinks usually calm him back down:
