We need to meet a very famous mustelid tomorrow, but other than that it’s time to spend the rest of this “M” month on moggies and mutts!
And this video is terrific:
While doing the cat eBooks, I learned that domesticity is inheritable (tameness is not).
So, even if adult feral cats might not ever feel comfortable around us again, their kittens — up to a certain age — can be rescued and adopted.
As the video shows, it isn’t easy for either the humans or the cats.
But it is so worth it!
