Toffee doesn't wander so much now tonib, which I am glad about. Mostly he can be found in the garden, next door down's garden or the next one down where Colin lives. Colin buys him Dreamies! Very worrying about the neighboured ginger cat dying suddenly but if Osiris and Lexie have brought home prey then hopefully it's not bait that was the cause.

Aw spider, you were right, Slippers is a beauty. Did Socks only have the one kitten?

Socks was a little cat she like Bobbie who is her sister and she was small even when she was carrying after she had her litter from rubbing her she wasn't feeding a large group however in truth as these beautiful creatures live very private lives I know where they live but when it comes time to have kittens that's a different story they find somewhere safe from the world and usually it's well chosen away from everybody and when it's time she will present her family to me and the rest of the colony and from what I have seen the colony will accept her family but there is no socks to explain who slippers is but I think aodi is helping out but to answer ur question the sadness is I don't know for sure that slippers is the only kitted but I have no idea where to start looking that keeps me awake the what if

What lovely facial marking spider, that white/cream V around Slipper's nose is very distinctive. A lovely name &a great tribute to mum Socks

Do you think you will be able to catch Slippers spider and find a home for him/her? He/she looks very young and needs a replacement mum.

Catching her will be difficult at the moment she is a very scared young lady but in a little while I will get her trust although that takes time but sinking as she is getting enough food she will be ok I remember fire how that little lad survived I will never know nobody knew he existed till one night he just strutted in and today he is a lovely cat that has taken must be a good year to reach a stage where I can almost rub him but we getting there slippers has had a hard start but I will be minding her a little bit extra if she gives me the chance coz she is socks kitten and socks was class

I always hope that it's easier to catch a kitten, just a quick grab and you've got it - but these feral kittens can be so wild when frightened. I hope you get her trust soon. My Bramble was a feral kitten caught in a cat rescue's trap when she was 9 weeks old.

I was in town and dropped by the pub hiss and Ozzie had food and I use a clicker to gather them all at night so clickers and out comes slippers and hid in a big overgrown shrub and cried like hell but I talked to him and as I spoke his cries quietened so I'm hoping he will recognise my voice ias not a treat I left some food and walked over to the other two and when I returned this was my findings and he didn't run away he just kept munching on Flickr
