Took a couple of weeks but eventually they all go better - either because they got small enough for me to cut them out, or because he was able to deal with them himself. He is a very docile beast though and didn't object to brushing, as long as it didn't go on too long.

DrMags Oct 2023 2:42pm, 25 Oct 2023 153 posts	0 DrMags Not in a box, but stuffed behind a radiator! New feral mother and outside-born kitten at the shelter today. Mum was hiding up on a kitchen cabinet, and the little tiddler had squeezed itself into the most inaccessible-to-human-hands place in the room. Managed to extricate it and pop it next to the food bowl.
