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

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
