Jane's
house is located in a rather poor neighborhood inside the Waycross city
limits. It is an area once overrun with stray cats. During the four
years that she has owned her house, she and Sandy have worked to trap
and neuter as many of the stray and feral cats near Jane's home. Many
of the initially "feral" cats quickly became domesticated
after being captured, and are now either permanent residents or available
for adoption. However, some of the cats have retained their feral qualities,
whether in part or in full. We have relocated most of our ferals and
semi-ferals out to our land.
Below
are pictures of some of our ferals and semi-ferals.
This is Buddy.
He was trapped in Jane's neighborhood, and lived in Jane's bathroom
for a month after getting neutered while she tried to domesticate him.
Unfortunately, Buddy remains completely feral. He was moved out to the
land back in June 2009, and continues to do well... although he won't
come within twenty feet of a human!
Big Guy
he showed up out at the land all on his own! We would suspect that he
had been abandoned out there, except for the fact that he was totally
feral when he arrived. He has been fixed, is fast becoming a friendly
kitty!
The cat to
the left is Mini; the tabbies, whom we have named Tabby 1
and Tabby 2 are her children. Mini was a feral whom we were unable
to catch before she had kittens. She hid the kittens from us until they
were several months old. By that time, Tabby 1 and Tabby 2 were too
feral to be tamed. They have all been fixed, and they live out at our
land.
The
video below is of Big Tabs, a neutered semi-feral who came from
Jane's neighborhood. He had been attacked by another feral, and recuperated
inside Jane's house. During this time, Jane discovered that he has an
amusing tickle spot: (see the video below). He now lives out at our
land.
This picture
was taken of Lucas shortly after he was trapped and brought inside.
He has since been neutered, and lives out at the land.
This is Tux,
yet another neutered semi-feral, originally from Jane's neighborhood.
This is Grey
Kitty, our most recent semi-feral acquisition. He lives at Sandy's house.
