    Cat - Catturd TM ... @catturd2 4 months ago, I saw a smallI kitten in the woods behind my property, I didn't think it would survive. I've been luring closer to my house feeding it every night. It's very wild. Finally got it to sleep on my porch this week. It let's me pet it now. I'm trying to give it a home.

    Aww, this cat is so beautiful, and it's a really high quality photo too! What a cute and pawsome little buddy, hopefully he makes a smooth transition from being a cautious and scared street cat to being a happy and spoiled house cat, this little guy definitely deserves it!

    Rectangle - m.hasenpfeffer @MjHasenpfeffer Replying to @catturd2 I had a cat like that once. He was my good friend. Came to see me everyday when I pulled into the driveway. As soon as I opened my door, he jumped into my lap.

    Aww, what sweet and encouraging words to give to someone else in the position that you were in years ago. Encouragement is just the thing that someone rescuing a feral cat needs, kudos to this commenter, you rock!

    Cat - AnnieG ... @g_analytical Replying to @catturd2 Cool! We started feeding a feral cat 6 yrs ago. Still can't pick her up or let her roam the house, but she's changed: stays in the garage when cold or stormy (uses the box!), rubs our legs, & follows us on walks. I woke her up. She is not pleased. e

    Cat - Somewhat Sassy Susie @NotTimidAnymore Replying to @catturd2 I adopted a shelter cat that had been feral for over a year. She was a wild child at first, and my hands still bear a few scars. But now she is my best buddy, head- butts me, "talks," and loves cuddling. Her name was Cinder, but I call her Cinderella.
