Today the ginger twins were let out. They stood and looked out

They crept out gingerly

Twice around the shed and back in. They have a cat flap fitted so perhaps they will have a look around when we are not there

Nice photos Shirl.  How long after you opened the door did they come out?  I wish I'd seen them.

They didn't come out for about 1hour. They had a mooch around the shed first.

Spoke to the Cats Protection lady last night and told her that the food had been eaten on Saturday night and there were some ginger hairs around the cat flap so they are eating.As you say Star there are so many interesting places to explore on the allotment site. I'm sure that I will get a glimpse of them sometime but they are true ferals

I rang up 2 places asking about feral cats, and each time I was rebuffed, and i asked both why not, and they seemed to think it wasn't a good idea, but they wouldn't elaborate on it, myself i think its better than living in a cage, and being put down, and i also think an allotment is an ideal environment for them, but it looks like I wont be getting any for my allotment, shame (I live nr Heathrow)

That is such a shame Dopey.  Our local Cats Protection is very keen on re-homing ferals to allotment sites.  Did you try Cats Protection?
