Today, I'm in training at an animal shelter. There's an adorable tiny kitten there, which my boss said not to touch it because it's feral. "No way he's dangerous" I said, reaching into the cage to pet it. It struck like a cobra and tore up my arm. My first on-the-job injury is from a KITTEN. FML

Just because it looks cute and cuddly definitely does not mean that it is! next time I would listen to the boss if I were you

He wouldn't have said it, if it wasn't true.

If you want to befriend it, give it small amounts of raw meat or treats. Don't force it. Talk sweetly to it, but do not touch it. Eventually, it may warm up to you. Ferals turned domesticated are never truly the same as a kitten who has always had contact with people but they can be pretty sweet and loving. You have to see it from their eyes. It's locked in a cage and something 30 times it size is staring it looking at it. It has never seen one before much less been this close. Then suddenly the creature reaches to grab the kitten with hands the size of it.

Some of them can still end up like a normal domestic cat. I remember when I started, there was a really pretty 8 or so month old feral mother cat who liked scratching people. Fast forward 7 months and she is the type of cat who constantly wants to sit on people's laps and purr. I've also worked with 2 5 month olds who still rarely ask to be petted a year later. It all depends on the cat how they end up.

This is why you listen, especially when you are around animals. While it may be safe to work with ones who are rehabilitated enough to stop attacking, full on feral cats should be left for people trained and experienced with them.
