Feral cats are totally different from socialized cats. They have not been socialized by people so they don’t know how to respond to people. Most of the time a female feral cat gives birth to a litter of kittens and almost immediately they hiss and avoid people just like mama, but little known to people if you just throw a socialized cat out to fend for itself they also can become feral. Just like dogs, cats need to be spayed and neutered.

A cat also needs several vaccines a year such as rabies, FVRCP and feline leukemia. Feline leukemia mimics the symptoms of AIDS and if a cat gets this disease, they will suffer greatly until they die from it. The normal longevity of a cat is around 21 years so it is vital if you get a cat to get all their vaccines and from day one keep them well socialized.
