Earlier this year our outdoor cats had babies. Well the mamas have moved on and its just the kittens that are hanging out. We currently have 6 kittens left with only one being a male. Since my current indoor cats have been at my parents and seem quite content to live here with them (my parents like them and want to keep them) I want to bring 2 of the girls home with me. They will be a year come march/april. There are 3 that I like but one of those three is a boy and I prefer to have the girls I want my brown kitten and my Twin Girl. Twin boy can stay here and hopefully NoTail (alfa male and father I think to all of them) will not come back and chase him away. After Christmas I am making a room downstairs for my 2 cats. The twins have already tried to come inside with one succeding in doing so. I think they will do fine becoming indoor cats. Dad thinks they may be to old since they been outside (living in the garage) since they were born last spring. I was going to get the kitten that one of them had but it froze in our single digit/negitive degree weather. Mom tried to catch it when it was in the garage but it got out. Looking for other opinions about bringing them in. My Delta cat was rescued and the person who 'saved' her believed that she may had been a ferral cat and not someones cat. I got her when she was about 3 years old and dont preferr kids but these cats let me hold them and lets my oldest hold them. My preKers have petted them (during feeding time) I think they will become good indoor cats. My first cat came to me as a kitten as did my 3rd. Only Delta was given to me by my hubby. Again this is hubby's gift to me, letting me have cats again. Sorry for the quick ramlbling but wanted to ask and the kids are starting to get restless sinc I decided to log on while they were quiet. TIA
It can be very hard to break a ferrell cat, pretty close to impossible. It can even be in their genes. I had a cat who was the kitten of a ferrell mamma, I took her in from 6 weeks and she never was a very good house cat... pee'd where she wanted, wouldn't stay off the kitchen counters or off the table etc.
