Having him confined to one room is especially important since he seems to be semi feral. It will be much less stressful for him to have a small room rather then the run of the entire house. Then you can visit him in the room often, and he'll get used to your presence and trust you much sooner. My MIL in took one of my really sweet feral born. She kept her in her bedroom and pretty much the two of them just lived in the bedroom together. My MIL did everything in there, watched tv, ate dinner, read, took her computer in there. Took about a month or two and Maggie showed her she was ready to see the rest of the house.Originally Posted by LDG
