It's #WittleWhiskersWednesday! 🐈💛🐈💙🐈 Next up in taming: Lifting! To prepare kittens to be picked up, pet head/shoulders as usual when they're eating, touch underbelly and nudge sides, then lift in front of food bowl. #kittenseason #fosterkittens #tnr #catsofbluesky #bideawee

It's #WittleWhiskersWednesday! 🐈💛🐈💙🐈 For some feral kittens, interactive play is the activity that most inspires trust, leading to breakthroughs in touch and handling. #kittenseason #fosterkittens #tnr #catsofbluesky #bideawee

Tiny paws, endless zoomies, and enough kitten chaos to brighten anyone's day. Playtime is serious business when you're this adorable!

It’s #KittenSeason at your local #AnimalShelter! Do you need a little #feline energy in your life? You might even get a discount on a #cat or #kitten. #Shelters also need #fosters!

Someone tell this little bottle baby that they’re supposed to be cute, not terrifying! 🦁✨

They’ve been practicing their big scary cat routine all morning, and we are thoroughly intimidated. 10/10 very ferocious.

It's #WittleWhiskersWednesday! 🐈💛🐈💙🐈 To tame feral kittens, slowly move food bowl/spoon/treat onto your lap. Once on lap and distracted by food, gradually sneak your hand behind his head to pet head/shoulders gently. #kittenseason #fosterkittens #tnr #catsofbluesky #bideawee

Bottle baby kittens LOVE it when Mom takes you on a field trip to the big-kid playground instead of the little-kid playground! 🍼🐱💕

Anyone know what this cutie pie is trying to tell us?

We’re definitely on eyeball watch over here!

This little baby is HUNGRY!

That bottle disappeared fast!

It's #WittleWhiskersWednesday! 🐈💛🐈💙🐈 Food is the No. 1 taming tool for feral kittens. Why? Their growing bodies need lots of food, so it's a great incentive for them to approach us despite their fear. #kittenseason #fosterkittens #tnr #catsofbluesky #bideawee

From tiny bottles every few hours to full-blown chaos. Look at these little guys go! 🍼🐾

Watching bottle babies grow into playful, feisty explorers is the absolute best reward.

It’s so much fun watching these bottle babies grow up!

Now they’re keeping themselves entertained with a wand toy that’s literally just laying there.

It's #WittleWhiskersWednesday! 🐈💛🐈💙🐈 Always trap, never grab feral kittens! Being chased down and grabbed by human hands is traumatic and sabotages the socialization process. #kittenseason #fosterkittens #tnr #catsofbluesky #bideawee

It's #WittleWhiskersWednesday! 🐈💛🐈💙🐈 Feral kittens 8w+ are harder to socialize than younger ones 'cuz mom has taught them to fear humans. But it's still worth trying food-based taming techniques. If no success in 2w, #TNR is best option. #kittenseason #fosterkittens #catsofbluesky #bideawee

Secret meeting of the smol.
