The Story Of Tiger, The Feral Born Cat That Is No Longer FeralsteemCreated with Sketch.

In the video Tiger is the cat that is being massaged by a feral cat that Mom also feeds. Tiger was of a litter of 3.

He was the most friendly of the litter of feral cats that just happened to appear in Mom's backyard in a wood pile.

By definition of a non-feral as from the spay and neuter is that if you can pet the cat and pick it up then it is not feral. Well that was Tiger. Mom also fixed the other 2 in due time.

Actually we thought Tiger was a girl cat. Mom originally called it, Tia, but when we heard it was a boy cat then she called it, Tiger.

Tiger would love to go very high. In his younger days we would see him on Mom's roof on top of the air conditioner, the highest point of the house.

Also mom's back yard has a lot of trees. We would notice him very high in a certain tree. Sometimes we would wonder how he would get down. Well, he would always make it down somehow.

The other cats of the same litter would disappear never to be seen again. Mom was sad that she didn't see them again.

I thought maybe a hawk or something got to them. I would even walk around the neighborhood to see if I could find them, but no sign of them.

So it was just Tiger then a kitten appeared. The kitten thought Tiger was it's parent and stayed close to him. Mom would feed the kitten also.

The kitten didn't even know how to lick itself clean, but keeping an eye on Tiger it was licking itself like any other cat.

So I guess Tiger was a role model to this kitten that just happen to show up without it's mother. I guess the mom cat and the kitten got separated from each other and Tiger was the only cat that the kitten would relate to.

Now that kitten is a full grown cat. It doesn't hang around Tiger as it used to when it was very young.

Now there was another kitten that took it's place and it looked up to Tiger also. We think the new kitten's mom is the mom of the newest set of kittens. Mom wants to catch that cat also and get it fixed.

Well we can't really call that second kitten a kitten anymore. It is more like a teenager kitten. This teenager like kitten was recently fixed. She is mentioned in the blog called, Letting The Feral Cat Out Of The Trap After Being Spayed.

Well it is the second kitten that took to Tiger that is more like a teenager kitten that is massaging Tiger in the video and the Tiger story goes full circle.
