Jenny, The Formerly Feral Feral


Hi Efurryone!!! I am Jenny. I been here wid my Maw fer almost 13 years now. Maw didn't know nuthin' bout Ferals wen she picked me out from a group of rescued kits at a furry nice lady's home. The furry nice lady and her hubby trapped me and about 30 udder cats and kits from under an ol' lady's house 'cause the ol' lady passed over da bridge and we wuz fending for ourselves out of the Taco Bell dumpster next door. (I still like Taco Bell meat!!!) Anyway, I was trapped at several months old and I was already fairly feral. So, Maw being an unaware bean, thought I wuz the perfect friend for the ol' Fart Bow and brought me home. Me and Bow is bestest furriends. He de only poodie dat I let sniff me or sleep close to me.
Maw and Paw say dat "I exist". I live in the howse with all the udder poodies here, I eat and sleep here. Sumtimes I cum out from hiding and meow at Maw so she will talk to me. Den we carry on a long conversation.
Me: Mew
Maw: What Jenny?
Me: Mewp
Maw: Do you want something Jenny?
Me: Meow Mew
Maw: Yes Jenny.
Me: Mew Meow
Maw: Do you want to play?
Me: Mewp
Maw: Can I pet you Jenny?
Me: Meowp!!
Den I leave.
If Maw or Paw walk into the room wen I is chewing on stinky goodness, I run. So dey walk on eggshells around me, or so dey say. Not knowing wat eggshells are, I dunt know.
I dunt haf to go to da V-E-T much cuz dey caint catch me. I only been maybe 4 times in my whole life!!! I is furry lucky.
Bye bye.

Nice to meet you Jenny. It's too bad you don't like being pet - it's one of the most wonderful things in the world! It sounds like you have a great forever home.

Nice to meet you Jenny! I'm glad you found a friend among the othe kitties. Even ferals start colonies cause they likes the company.
You have a wonderful Maw & Paw to takes such good care of all of you. I just read about Obi today too and am thankful that he found your beans.
Just for the record, my mommy would totally adopt a special needs kitty. She and daddy said they'd sell a car to make sure I have good medical attention. I hope (so do they) they never have to!

Hi Jenny, you are very cute and very funny. You should try letting your people pet you sometimes. You may like it.

It's very nice to meet you Jenny! I like Taco Bell meat myself - yum. We were all feral kittens from the same litter. Cocoa and I became pretty friendly pretty fast, but not Grr. She only likes the Blonde Girl and only wants to be touched when it's her own idea.
