i fed the wrong cat, I shouldn't have favorites but I do , when i came back from the store today one of the cats was hanging out and I didn't have any  chicken so I gave it some regular cat food. the picture kind of sucks becaues  my phone doesnt have the zoom option. anyways

this is the kitten almost cat i fed today


right after this one ate , the one i had fed before showed up, but ran away when i went to put more food in the dish.

Yeah, you might want to try using separate dishes, so no scents are lingering.

and his running away is just reaction. When you think about it they must be on red alert 24-7 being strays....;)

Maybe you could leave your door open,only when that particular Cat shows up.
   If you make him/her feel welcome,it'll eventually maybe begin to trust you.
        Any idea how old it is,roughly?

i think they maybe related because i put extra food out ( i didn't change the bowls) and he came back and ate the food.

true , i have hopes for the one with the blue eyes( thats the one i fed chicken pieces to) since he seems really curious.

i dont know how old it maybe but i tried to find a picture of a kitten/cat about the same size

I don't think I'm ready to invite kitten in just yet, I have to build up to it lol.

We accumulated a number of semi-domesticated/neglected cats and a couple of their wild offspring over a few years. One only went so far with level of trust while its sister took up residence on top the fridge and let you pet it, well except me, they hated me. I guess they didn't like being trapped, grabbed, caged and spayed.
