Thank you. You can see how long ago we did the video. The black cat (Lucky) is just NOW starting to jump up on me to ask to be pet. Sometimes it just take longer than others. :-)

My feral kitten got loose in my room. He hides when I try to approach him. How do I get him back into containment? I need to get him to a vet but I have to socialize him first. I socialized two of his sisters already, but he's really wild. I have no intention of getting rid of him.

So sorry I did not see your comment until now. Being a KZread creator I only do this part time. I hope you were able to recapture your cat. When it happened to me, it took a lot of patience and some special soft food to entice mine back into the socialization cage. Tell us how you got yours back in? Have a great day.

Try enticing with Chicken and Rice baby food. We had a small jar that helped. I think it was in the video. Best of luck. Feral cats can be very tricky.

I am surprised to see you putting a new cat in with a cat they don’t know. Not only could they fight but you should always quarantine a new cat for two weeks. They can pass on diseases or ringworm etc.

Thank you for your comment. Sorry I did not make it clear enough in the video, but they were all from the same litter and were found in my backyard. They were born together and lived together and were caught within a week or so from each other. But yes, if you get multiple cats from multiple different sources you would have to quarantine them from each other.

The wild baby I have right now is wayyyy more 🌶 than this baby. Had him a week and he’s still up for attacking me. Waiting on my welding gloves from Amazon. I named mine Hunan 🌶 Beef 😂 his/her alter appointment isn’t til the 19th

Beyond popular belief, cats really are not fans of being picked up, especially ones that have been feral. Do not take offense. I still have one that still runs from me when I put both my hands towards her. She loves sitting with my wife and I, loves being pet and ear scratches but STILL not a big fan of being picked up

I wonder if you'll get this. I want to socialize 4 x 10 week old kittens. Extremely wild! I have them in the toilet - about 2,5 meters by 2,5 meters. I feel so bad for locking them up in that tiny room. They're in there now for a week but they're still very wild. When can I let them out of the room?

Thank you MedWebExperts so very much for watching our video and taking time to comment. We really appreciate that. My personal unprofessional opinion is to do what we did. Get a socialization cage (portable enclosed dog cage that you see in the video with the accessories) and bring them into the living room area if you have room. This lets them see what is going on around them, hear the sounds, and get used to the human(s) around them. this helped in our situation, which is all I can really comment on. Perhaps someone else who sees this will have another/better idea. Hope this helps. Have a GREAT Day.

How soon should you take them too the vet? I'm trapping a feral kitten now but I'm worried about bringing fleas or anything into my home before I can take her to a clinic. Will i be able to handle her to give her a bath straight from her trapping cage?

You can put Capstar (crushed tablet) in their food. I did this recently the night before trapping. That way, the fleas fall off outside. I waited a few days for the vet, so she wouldn't be even more traumatized.

I have 2 feral cats living outside my house. We have been feeding them for about a year but they only let me get close to them when there is food. We are considering trapping one and putting it in a room to socialize and get used to our presence. Is there any alternatives for this?

For that I would simply tnr them and return them to outside your house.. Feral cats over a year are very challenging to tame. It’s doable but it takes a lot of time, patience ,& dedication.. from.. btw there is nothing wrong with returning them to your neighbourhood after tnr.. they may need to recover from surgery first but after that .. they are ok.. they might still hang around your house outside but at least they will be fixed and your cat colony won’t become more..

I would trap BOTH of them, since they are used to being together. It's easier with two. In fact, I recently trapped two (think they are siblings) and 3 weeks in they are purring instead of hissing! They are about 10 months old.

The one I'm working with turned into the Tasmanian devil when I tried to touch her. Forget about picking her up.

@@josie4peace try squatting down and getting her to come near you with treats as you pet her on the sides and rub her chest and under the chin; don't grab or reach from the top of her head. When she is comfortable, reach around her sides and pick her up and hold her for a moment, then put her right back down. Do this repeatedly until she softens. Finally then, hold her, still from a squatting position, hold her for a moment or two and put her down again....then in a few days instead of squatting down, stay standing and bending down pick her up and bring her up with you as you rise to standing and repeat the holding her for a moment or two and then put back down. Always praise her and give her treats as you do these exercises. Just go slow, let her take her time to not care anymore and over a couple weeks, she should easily be ready to walk around with you holding her! You should be able to increase your time holding her and putting her down each time. Consistency is key. My feral boy is now jumping on my desk craving my attention!! He was just like yours! I did this with him and still squat down for him (get on his level) to give him treats and remind him I understand he is special. :) He isn't like some of my others who are "lap cats", but he has improved GREATLY since I have been doing this with him.

Is this going to be similar for a 10 month old feral kitty?

Usually the older the feral cat is, the harder it is to socialize. However, in your case, it seems the cat is at least used to interacting with humans so is not fully feral. There may be a good chance of being successful. Good luck 👍

Lots of patience and space. Feed them with your hand, or soft food on a spoon. While they're eating try getting closer and closer and see if you can pet them while eating. Otherwise, don't push it. They'll come around.

May I recommend tasty high quality lunch meat? I have two extremely sweet toms from a litter that I rescued from an eviction of super filthy dope dealers. It took a hot minute, but the allure of tasty meat won them over. They are now two of the most affectionate and devoted cats I have shared space with in my 66 years on earth. They paid me back by keeping me sane for the last year. Sadly, their mother and brother fell prey to a #@%$ panther. Needless to say, my guys are now strictly indoors.

Thank you Mike Louis so very much for watching our video and taking time to comment. We really appreciate that. So sorry to hear about the panther attack. The reason why we did not go with the lunch meat right away is because we did not know how old the kittens were, exactly, and if they could digestively handle the tougher to digest lunch meats. Hope that clears up our reasoning. Have a GREAT Day.
