Hi,

Some "ferals" are friendly enough that they can be quite content as a indoor only house cats. And like anything else in life, there are those kittens, which are impossible to turn them into a nice pets. Our rescue group have seen all varieties of "ferals".

Only thing is give it a try. If you pay attention, I think you will know the answer in just few days as to whether he can be a pet or feral/wild cat.

Years ago, I had two cats. One came to my house as an injured guy and looking for a new home. So he wasn't a feral. The first two or three month was a bit trying for both of us. He wasn't fixed... long story short, he sprayed inside my house on several occasions. Once we got him fixed, he was fine. When he was about 5, I turned him into a strictly an indoor cat. At first, he didn't like it but he eventually got used to it. I stopped letting my cats out after his "sister" was nearly taken by a coyote. She survived and lived a good long life.

wish you luck with the Curly kitten,

aw, poor baby. Imagine having to move around with a broken leg and no help Nature is rough. Good luck whatever you do.

V - The same thing happened to my sister's cat, Lucy. The vet predicted that Lucy would never use the leg again but, even though it bothered her, she got around well. She was quite the scrapper---hunter, could kick any other cat's butt (and did), ran like the wind, sometimes on three legs. An indoor/outdoor cat with a taste for mice, moles, rabbits, etc --our kitchen outside window sill became her trophy shelf.

The recovery from the infection was extremely painful for Lucy, but this was back in the 70s.... The vet had to change her bandages changed weekly and it was a horrible ordeal for all involved.

During curly's recovery, everyone --- human and feline --- will figure out whether it's right for curly to be an indoor cat. Best wishes to you and a quick recovery for sweet curly

Curly Kitten is recovering nicely and is beginning to use his leg. He'll probably always have a limp. We decided to not make him a house cat, but since his visit to the vet, he's friendlier.

That makes me very happy! That is such a cute name by the way.

My little buddy, Lucien limpy Williamson - is a lizard with three legs. I befriended him via facebook( before having him to tea party, really!!).He had a op and now is climbing.
Curly kitten is another I guess, far off creature whom I just suddenly felt close too!
So good of you to care for the little guy!
