Taming the Wild!

A little over a week ago, my husband and I discovered a kitten in the woods near his parents home. We estimated she was no more than eight weeks old, and had probably just been separated from her mother. Although she cried pitifully, and did approach us, this little cat was definitely feral and refused to be caught. We fed her, and tried all sorts of tricks to capture the poor little thing. About six hours of trying yielded a result - she darted under our car and climbed into the engine. We opened the hood and managed to catch her. By then my finger was bleeding and my husband's hands were covered in gashes. We zipped her up in a cat carrying case and headed home with a wild animal to try and domesticate! In my next post I'll let you know how we're doing with taming the wild cat!
