You must have a wonderfully gentle hand. His look is one of pure contentment.

He is a sweetie, and he seems to be holding up pretty well. He's eating well, etc..

And he is very sweet. This cat is never offered to scratch or bite, but then Ive never really kept him captive.

(43,332 posts)7. Tiger is a feral. He was born here 15 years ago and he slowly become tamed to me and now he's living on my porc
We had a bunch of kittens, trapped, neutered, and released. It worked have had no new kittens since. He stuck around. I put his little house out there last winter with a heating pad in it and he has decided to take up residence out there and Im really glad about it. Now I dont worry in the bad weather where he is 15 years old is very good for an outdoor cat.
