MAJOR BREAK-THROUGH

I think it was the very first part of December 2011, when I finally caught Charley (Charcoal) and had her fixed.  She does lay in the road sometimes and across the street trying to chase squirrels but for the most part, she comes to me when called but DEFINITELY shows up every day at 3pm for the canned food feeding (actually more like 2 or at least 2:30). She is a really good kitty. Fortunately, her mommy, Midnight, stays much closer to home and is also right there for the wet food. 

Tonight, she let me scratch her and while she got scared, she gave in and let me scratch her again for a while.  I've been trying since I first started feeding them and sometimes have gotten close, but only while she's eating and has been distracted.  Like I said, major breakthrough!  Happy Days!
