DOING IT AT "HIS" PACE IS THE ONLY WAY TO GO WITH A FERAL.  I HAVE HAD 2 SO 
FAR, SHORTY PASSED AWAY AT 18 YEARS AND AFTER HE DECIDED TO LET ME TOUCH HIM, 
BECAME A LAP BABY AND EVERY NIGHT HAD TO SLEEP ON MY BED.  NITNOY IS TAKING A 
LITTLE LONGER BECAUSE SHE LOST ALL BUT 3" OF THER TAIL TO A RACCOON AND SHE IS 
STILL A BIT SKITISH, ALTHOUGH SHE IS INSIDE AT NIGHT AND ON COLD, RAINY DAYS.  
SHE WILL SIT WITH ME ON TH SOFA, BUT STILL DOES NOT LIKE TO BE TOUCHED TOO MUCH 
AND NEVER, NEVER TOUCH HER TAIL.  DORLIS
