Street kitten Giorgio finds a home

[@FlatbushCats]

Many have asked how we're doing with the pandemic and spay/neuter clinics closed for health and safety reasons - most activity and travel is restricted but we are doing OK overall. There will be a lot of catchup work to do once the quarantine is lifted, and of course the cats keep on coming. You can learn more about our current rescue projects on Instagram: instagram.com/flatbushcats/ - thanks for your support everyone!

We feed about 15 cats. My big concern is what happens when so many owners perish due to the virus. I imagine a lot of animals will suffer along side us.

[@lisasemmler4111]

I rescued a feral colony that was originally 10, made up of two 3-week old babies, four 4-month-olds, and 4 adults. It was my plan to trap, neuter, release, but did not realize that finding available appointments with the local shelter for 10 cats took 7 weeks, and this was in the worst conditions of winter in 2017/2018. Three got altered right away, and they were put back into their original environment. I found a home for one of the babies, kept the other baby as mine, and it was my plan to return the others. However, winter conditions were too risky to put the 4-month-olds out in the cold, so I made a make-shift shelter in my home. Long story short, they just ended up hanging around my home, and I still take care of them. The mama of all of them was full-on feral and hated humans, and the 4-month olds were skittish and leary of humans. Over the years, the 4-month olds domesticated and are friendly and affectionate with me and my dogs. Mama feral is coming around, slowly. I can pet her without her freaking out, but she definitely glares at me for it. I named her Cougar. :) In my opinion, the key to taming them was keeping the baby, whom I named Larry. They saw his playfulness, his affection and purring, and that he was safe with me picking him up, playing with him, loving on him, etc.

[@lofigaming3954]

I found my current kitty outside, he was 3 and a half months, not socialized and extremely scared. Thankfully there was no aggression just extreme fear. Within less than 24hrs of trapping him, he warmed up to us and was so sweet. The vet said she was very surprised how kind he was for a feral cat. There were other kitties that unfortunately I wasn’t able to catch after trying for weeks. My current cat (Elijah) was the only one left. I agree though, if I want to continue helping cats I can’t keep them all. Thank you for the tips!

[@fizzrpg9961]

Thank you so much

[@mynameismarlys]

We've adopted 2 bonded pairs and just want to underline the difference it makes for socialization and contentment. They cuddle, play, and play-fight at an energy level we could never hope to meet.

Thanks to you and your other volunteers for continuing your work despite these sour times.

Thank you for explaining the philosophy and methods of TNR, I could never understand it, returning cats to the unsheltered cold and rain. So, the point is that a colony is fed and neutered, cats able to be socialised are removed to foster and adopt, but the end goal is what, a happy neighbourhood or zero cats?

(They’ve been trapped & fixed) All of a sudden one of them decided he wants to be my friend. The big step was can I pick him up. Woo hoo! I was able to pick him up and love on him. This is weeks of him rubbing up against me. Now to get him adopted is the hard part. Thank you for all that you do to save these sweet cats/kittens! ❣️ The kitten growling while playing was hilarious!

I was able to tame an 8week kitten in 4 days but I spent like 6 hrs a day outside with that kitten. On the 1st day she kept running away (drew her back with food). 2nd day she couldn’t resist playing with my toys, and even let me pick her up. By the 3rd day she was falling asleep and purring in my lap. 4th day I took her to a shelter, thought I was doing the right thing. They euthanized her. Learned my lesson. Now I just rehome cats on my own.
