My wife is an equestrian, so we have a small horse farm. Because we live in a rural area, dogs and cats have a way of just showing up. In January of 2021, a feral tom cat started appearing at our place. Because I am a soft touch, I left food out for him. But, because he was feral, I had a hard time getting within 20 feet of him. In June, he was obviously sick and had lost a lot of weight. I was able to wrangle him into a carrier and get him to a vet friend, who diagnosed him with bobcat fever. We ended up having to treat him at home and, as you might imagine, he is not feral anymore.

Not by a long shot.
