[quote=Anonymous]We successfully domesticated a feral cat who moved into our back yard with 4 kittens. (We also found homes for her kittens, who were very easy to domesticate.) It took a lot of patience but was worth it. The first step was just catching her and getting her (and the kittens) spayed/neutered and immunized. Eventually she spent about half of her time in our house and was really sweet with me and our child. When she was the slightest bit nervous (such as when guests came over), she would run to the door and cry until we let her go outside, where she was more comfortable. She had a dog house outside to use during inclement weather, when she would sometimes refuse to come in. Taking her to the vet was a huge challenge, and our discovery of the house call vet (there are now several in the area) was a minor miracle in our lives. Good luck![/quote]
