Frankie the street cat finds a home

Frankie made it to the good life! See the next stories coming up on our Instagram: instagram.com/flatbushcats

[@willworkforchocolate6331]

I’ve held off creating an Insta account, but kitty stories might be what persuades me to change my ways LOL. 🐱

[@chainamarie03]

@@willworkforchocolate6331 There are tons of rescue acts on IG. Plus lots of good animal info. Make an acct I'm sure you won't regret it.

[@chainamarie03]

How do you find your fosters and adopters? I've have some awful experiences where fosters just dumped 'my' cats instead of returning them to me. Do you do home checks before and after a cat has left your rescue to make sure they're okay?? Do you charge an adoption fee? I'm so glad Frankie has an indoor home and is safe and cared for.

[@mynoxx01]

We adopted a kitten from an animal rescue what was feral and already 4-5 months old. The woman we adopted from was very sceptical and told us we can give the kitten back if we cant handle her. We followed your way of socializing kittens, i spent most days just lying on my belly on the floor feeding her from my hands only. Now she is living with us already for half a year and she is an absolute cutie and extremly bounded to us, she loves cuddling and follows us everywhere. She also loves our other male cat and they get along very well. Her name is spicy because of her fire at the start. Thank you for your videos, I learn so much from them every time.

[@nithikasingh9957]

My cat's name is also spicy!!!! She was over 8 weeks old when I found her so she was not very friendly but she needed help as she had a fractured leg!. Spent much time trying to get her to like me by doing the same thing! And named her spicy for the same reason! Dont regret a second of time I spent with her!

[@incog99skd11]

My cat has the tell tale clipped ear. He was wild when he decided to adopt me (such an honor). Now he is full of personality and snuggles with me every night. I believe any cat can be tamed as long as the cat chooses you at the onset.

[@atticusfinch4266]

I'm working on a male about 7 years old, butch, that grew up outside the apartment complex I'm renting. He's totally an outdoor cat, and fixed. fed twice a day. Just so beautiful. I left my back door open for a few minutes, dark rainy day, and I came back and he was asleep on my bathrobe under my clothes in the closet. He'll eat near me but not out of my hand. Wish me luck. What the manager doesn't know won't hurt him.

[@incog99skd11]

@@atticusfinch4266 It takes time. My cat, Nehemiah will never be a hugger or sleep on me but that's OK. The other night he was sleeping on his back and laid his paws on my arm. I didn't move for the longest time because it was the first time he ever did that. As long as you are good with them being shy and somewhat independent you will do fine. Take it slow and show the cat that you care for him, he will respond in his own way. Sometimes people don't understand that it's going to be on the cat's terms and that's OK. My Nehemiah will never let me "hug" him and I am fine with that. He has many other ways of showing me he loves me like rubbing up against my legs when I feed him or letting me have a certain number (3 exactly) of prescribed tummy rubs. Every cat is different and if you accept them for who they are, you will have no problem. Over time you two will become closer and closer.

[@atticusfinch4266]

@@incog99skd11 aww, thank you so much for your kind encouragement. Butch came in my room a little while ago during the rain (t.s arthur) he sat on the inside of the glass door looking out. I leave it open a little so he knows he can go when he's ready. I worry about hurricane season, but the other tenants say" all animals know what to do in a storm" or "cats know where to hide". I don't believe this is true. It's miserable outside in the rain and the cold.

Well I have some progress. Butch will let me touch him when I feed him some treats. He flinches but he's getting better. And he brings me half dead things and dead things I guess he sharing his food with me. he'll come in and stay awhile looking out the glass. When he wants out I let him out right away.

TNS I believe that‘s what the vet does after spaying/neutering the cats, to signify that the cat is already spayed/neutered! It‘s a sign for future volunteers to not catch that cat again.

Doing pest control work in NYC and Brooklyn I see cats running around now and them, and being a big cat person it makes me feel so good to have found your channel. Your organization does a great thing for the fur baby's that have no one to love them. Most of the cats I've had over the years have been abandon, abused, or left by deceased owners with no one to care for them. Every one of these special kitties have given me so much love and I miss each one of them when there time on the earth comes to an end. I'm blessed with crooky neck who is going to be 20, he was abused as a kitten and panther jack who's owner died in an auto accident when he was 8 months old and no one wanted to take him. Keep up the great work you do and I will be sending you a donation as soon as I can. All the best. Peter Kennedy.
