Was there again this morning. He came straight over to me and absolutely devoured two pouches of Whiskas
One of the other strays this morning. He's called Ucho because one of the ladies that looks after him is Polish and Ucho is the Polish word for ear.
Nobody is sure what happened his ear, probably a fight with another cat.

This thread is heartbreaking. I'm so sorry for everything everyone is going through

I've just finished crying for a really embarrassing reason. On Monday I matched with a guy on tinder and we've been talking on the phone for hours every night. He seemed like a great guy, lots in common, funny and smart. Last night we met up and went on a long walk together. Then this morning he texted me to say he didn't feel a romantic connection with me and thanks but no thanks basically.

I feel so stupid for crying over it and feeling like I'll be alone forever and wondering what's wrong with me

I cry almost every day at the moment. Very out of character for me and I do it mostly in private as my husband hates me crying and isn’t too sympathetic. I’m menopausal anyway, but I’ve also lost my job I loved after 20+ years and haven’t worked now since lockdown even though I was furloughed for a few months. I’m finding it difficult to get a job, I was very well paid and I’m horrified at the pay of most jobs and realise I will never earn what I did previous, I worry about paying the mortgage in a few months time. I’ve had one interview for a job I don’t want (not heard yet) but it was a horrendous interview for a shit job, I’ve not had an nterview for over 27 years and I was terrible! I sat in my car after and cried like a baby! This fucking coronavirus has made me depressed and anxious and I can now join the mental health club!!

This morning. I found out someone very dear to me has passed away from cancer. I feel like there's a boulder on my chest.

I have and he was great. Another lady who feeds them was parking nearby just as he was finishing my Whiskas. She had food for him and some of his buddies too. We didn't know each other, but we were chatting for a bit. It seems there are quite a few people looking after them which is great, but it's going to be hard for them to be outdoors all the time in the winter The animal welfare group that look after them are great though. They've made little houses and kennels for them and they're hidden in under the bushes and trees at the back of the car park so at least they have somewhere to shelter.
Have a look a page or so back and you'll see 'my' little guy sitting on 'his' traffic cone

Aww that so lovely. What a gorgeous boy. Shame I can't take him. Like you I already have one and my boy needs my full attention all the time. Our previous cat was ex feral. It took so much work to adjust her but it was an utter privilege that she let me.

Thank you for what you do to help these cats

Thank you, and thank you for taking a feral girl and looking after her

My own cat was a stray. I wouldn't say she was feral, but she was definitely very nervous around people and still is a bit. We thought she might have been dumped, but we're not sure because she wasn't a kitten, the vet thought she was around a year old at the time. She's fine with my husband and myself and with our neighbour because she's used to him as he has a cat too and we look after each other's cat if either of us are away. She usually tends to just ignore anyone who comes into the house although she will let one of my friends rub her.
She was at the vet recently for her annual jabs and check up. There are three vets in the practice, but it's pot luck who you'll get on the day as none of them have regular shifts/days because they work out of a second practice too. Two of them are lovely. The third one I don't like at all. She's very cold and doesn't ever seem to show any affection towards any of the animals. Oddly enough my cat doesn't like her either nor does my neighbour's cat! I was really hoping it wouldn't be her when we went as I wasn't sure whether or not I'd even be allowed in at the moment.
In the end I was (everyone was masked up and I had to stand at the other end of the room while the vet was checking her) Fortunately we got one of the nice vets who was telling my lady that she was a pretty girl and after asking me where she liked to be rubbed, was rubbing her ears and the top of her head any my cat was absolutely fine with her.

The other lady that I was talking too said she'd love to take him too, but she has a very territorial Jack Russell who barks at and tries to chase her neighbours cat.
I think the animal group will be able to find a home for this little guy though. They had to prioritise for the last couple of weeks though because the big ginger boy had a bad leg injury so he had to be taken care of and then one of the ladies went down there early one morning to discover a litter of kittens only a few weeks old She took them and the mother cat in. They already have homes for them when they're ready to leave the mother and she's going to be spayed.

We had to take our cat to the emergency vets during Covid. It was so stressful because we had to have the verbal consultation in the car park on the side of a busy road and he was very unwell. I had to hand my little boy over to them and felt so helpless . Nice vets make such a difference.

My feral cat used to hide when strangers came to the house. She was a little round furry lump. She would hide down the side of the sofa with her tail sticking out. Don't think she quite grasped the rules around successfully hiding . Friends would pretend not to see her .

I miss her loads. So now I'm definitely on the right thread as I'm having a teary moment sitting here at my desk

A friend reminded me of when I last blubbed a few tears, and that was watching Tom Hanks in "Castaway" crying after losing his island companion, "Wilson" out at sea.

The unique thing about Wilson was that he wasn't human, but a volleyball (I guess you had to watch the scene to understand)

im nearly crying now, im sick of ovulation bleeding every month, it always scares me and makes me think ive got cancer, even though ive had tests and nothing comes back apart from a fibroid. The worst part is nobody else seems to suffer from it.
