Isn't "MY FERAL" kind of an oxymoron? I mean isn't the very DEFINITION of a feral cat that they are not currently domesticated (i.e. owned) by anyone?

Your kitty is very sweet, in a wild, crazy kind of way. I love feral cats because they are so pure. They have hard lives, no doubt. But they are so untainted.

IDK, there are ferals who kind of "adopt" certain people. they are more friendly around those people and may even allow them to pet them. though you probably wouldn't consider them pets, if you take care of them (feed them, get them to the vet), they do kind of feel like their "yours". but otherwise, yes, that is a pretty cat, scab and all. love that color, whatever it is!

I say "my feral" because she does come around every day and she sits on the back porch. I can't pet her, but she'll sit 2 feet away and meow while I'm pouring her food.

I got her spayed, took care of her litter.

So, if she's anybody's cat, she's mine.

Have you thought about giving her a name? You've already shown quite a commitment to her and cared for her so much. Or....we could help you name her
Have folks submit names, and you do the drawing! (LOL, aren't I just full of helpful suggestions....sorry )

Hanna, they're so cute!

Carly is curled up in the corner right now next to my computer desk, digesting her breakfast.

Here's an interesting story on video (with a commercial) about a Bobcat and her kittens making a home in a guy's attic:
