Thank you.  That was interesting.  The kittens are older than I thought.
The mother cat isn't feral if she'll allow you to look at her or touch her.
She may need some adjusting to do, and she may surprise you.
When I trapped Rosie, she was about 7 months old, untouched and untouchable.
She spent most of her time on top of cupboards in the laundry room and then
on a closet shelf when I moved her to a bedroom.
She was scared, but not aggressive, so I knew she would come around.
It took a long time, but now she is so sweet and totally tame.
Do you think you'll be able to add some photos?

What a lovely post.  Kudos to you for doing so well with them.

Fraid I'm having a tough time keeping up with these new hours I'm
working with the winter job. Haven't had a chance to read anything
yet, but it's bookmarked so I'll be reading it eventually
