Hey guys so I know some of you know me and @bitchboyjohn are in a long distance relationship. I was accepted to go to the university right near his house. However, a plane ticket is kinda expensive and that's what's holding me back at the moment. Money has been tight because of traveling to doctors appointments for my Psychogenic Non Epileptic Seizures and Functional Neurological Disorder and my dad's passing. So, if y'all wouldn't mind perhaps check out my Etsy or K*fi shops. It's got stuff starting at just $5.
If you can't afford to donate or buy anything, please reblog and share with a friend who might be interested.

I don't think she understands the concept of going on a walk

My cats are definitely feral. Why they meow? Idk. I'm trying to figure that out. They've never been around humans. I'm the only human they've ever meowed at. Why do they show that sign of domesticity?

Sometimes it's about the way she looks at you.
#she's so weird#what does it mean when feral cats just look at you for like five minutes straight#cats#fussy cats#outdoor cats#animals#community cats#semi feral cats#feral cats#cats of tumblr#cute cats#lenny the cat#i desire to pick her up and bring her inside but I further desire not to get scratched to death and cause her to have a panic attack

I've noticed a lot of comments on this post about these cats. I'm no expert on feral cats but I have my four dumb dumbs, so I have had experience. Feral cats aren't like a typical house cat, and none of them are the same in terms of socialization. Some outdoor cats will do just fine when introduced into a home like my other two cats who were always left outside by their last owner. However, other cats like my semi-ferals don't adjust as easy. Macca, Lenny and George have probably been feral all their lives, and because of that they were more hesitant around me at first. I wasn't able to decide to bring them indoors and let them be free because they really didn't want to be inside. I tried actually keeping Macca in the garage, and I think it's crueler to let a poor cat slam himself against the window where he could very well hurt himself than let him be outside where he's comfortable. He wasn't kept inside more than two minutes before I realized it wasn't going to work, although he is willing to come inside if a window or door is open, and I hope someday all my ferals will be content indoor cats. Back when the colony first appeared they wouldn't come close at all, but after sitting outside for countless hours they came near and I can even pet Lenny, and the outsider of the colony, Elton (who is an entirely different case, I believe he's a long abandoned stray because he doesn't get along well with the colony and he is the most talkative cat I have ever seen and as soon as I can I'm going to bring him in the garage and see how he acts). It takes lots of time to get feral cats used to being around humans. My cats went through a TNR program (trap, neuter release). It is much easier to catch a cat in a humane trap when the cats are used to the people who are feeding them. That very well could be what the situation above was. A feral cat association in the area may have heard about a large colony and brought loads of food out to try to get the cats used to being around people, and that's a good thing. However, using a whole cooked fish like that doesn't provide a ton of nutritional value and the bones are a choking hazard. A wet food/dry food mix would be best because then the cats will get all their nutrients and be hydrated. Some of the cats do look quite young. It is definitely easier to socialize a kitten because just like humans and almost every other animal I can think of, important things on how to survive are learned at a young age. I'm talking things like who to trust and communication skills. Older ferals have a harder time learning those skills, because they already survive just fine on their own, but some can change after time and patience and kindness. I do see that those cats are on pavement, so I assume they're in a city. In my personal opinion, it would be best for them to be relocated to a more rural area so they can be barn cats or easily domesticated. Barn cats are a good thing because they tend to keep mice and snakes away, which over all help farmers or anyone who lives in the woods and has had the unpleasant feeling of discovering a snake in your house or a rat in the place you want it least.
Though, all cats deserve love, and it really is our fault as humans for throwing them out, not getting them fixed and leaving them for dead. And while a shelter may not be the best place for a feral cat (they get euthanized because they're not very popular), there are other places like animal ranches or some farmers who need help with pest control that would gladly accept a TNRed feral. And TNR is simple and in some cases, such as my own, free. Google the area you live in and type in feral cat society or association after it. Resources should appear and there will be help. Also after a cat is fixed they're a whole lot easier to socialize, and the less kittens there are in the world, the less socialization will need to be done.

If my ferals meow at me often does that mean they're domestic now?

my favorite thing is when you pick up an animal and you look them in the eyes and you can tell nothings going on behind them. you look at them and theres just elevator music. stupid animals really are like the fucking best, the lights are on but no one is home
