That is not a feral cat. A feral cat becomes feral by living in the wild or city.

The feral cats come to my door everyday for food but I DO NOT pet them and they still maintain their distance

This one will come and rub on my legs and hiss at me

The majority of feral cats DO NOT know how to meow, that is a learned thing

So, she will hiss and that means she loves me and wants some food

Our cat was 8 months old when he was tamed by one can of tuna and one can of chicken. Best and coolest cat I ever could imagine. Sometimes feral cats turn out to be gems.

He does eat and poop very much but we have zero mice.

We have very few rodent problems since we started collecting cats.

We have two ferals that come around. I think they have adopted us.

Neither of them meows in the standard sense. One makes a 'mer' noise and the other just grunts.

Both tolerate a little bit of attention, but for the most part are on their own.

I agree, and would also state one can never 'tame' a feral animal. They exist as they are, we are simply peripheral to their existence. That is the beauty of it.

I've had several. All of them warmed up to me in varying degrees. Some became super affectionate, some stayed distant but always wanted to be around me. Very gratifying to see them begin to trust you especially when I know some of them were abused by humans.

Well, cats have a way of showing up and deciding you are going to be their owner. So when that happens, you feed and water them and give them shelter. They will eventually become take - at least as far as you are concerned.

We actually tamed a 3/4 grown tom once. My parents had moved into town from the farm, and I had grown up and moved away. We caught him because there wasn't anybody to take care of him and I wanted a remembrance of where I grew up. It took 2-3 weeks, but we tamed him, and he became the best cat we had ever had.

13 feral cats in the back garden & over several months they have become tame. Feral cats will form colonies so every year we see new faces trying to establish themselves within the group. Some like to stay while others are just passing through but all are offered food & veterinary attention if required. In return, they offer their services in the form of free pest control.

They can be domesticated easier than you think. All it takes is a flea dip and full belly. Be wary of toxoplasmosis and other diseases.

More of a dog person myself though.

 Quoting: GA Girl


Cats don't have owners, though they will hang around where there is food and somewhere warm to sleep. Some cats are more friendly towards humans and understand who is friendly and who isn't. Some cats are skittish / aggressive / timid however much they are cared for.

Cats are individuals. Sometimes a feral cat will take to an individual. I had one that came out of nowhere and would let me pick him up from the get go. Others not so much. But they definitely will sometimes pick a person to bond with.

It can be done but it entails a lot of arm padding and a willingness to pick the cat up by the nape and toss it onto the floor. Eventually the get it that you're the mama cat and they must obey.
