Silly feral kittens are silly and feral.
The way I feel about kittens is weird, I like them and all but I honestly prefer the relationship one can develop with an older cat who already has a personality developed.
Of course I'm not going to deny the joy I will have trying to keep track of these guys once they are released and watching them develop into whichever cat they are going to be.
Right now they are just goofy because their little bodies and their bodies reaction to pets is love but their stupid little heads are all stuck in feral hiss n spitz mode.
Dorks. ;P

Generally the feral kitties get the smell my finger deal but you do risk terrifying them or getting a good swat or nip.
Some times we have to "force pet" them which looks just awful because they cringe and shrink away from the petting like we are killing them.
Most of the time it dawns on them that this feels nice and they become socialized ferals. Some of them never get over hating us stinking humans, then I just hope they find some nice kitty friends and be's happy that way.
The goal is for them to be happy ultimately but it's nice if they love me back.
But, I would not adopt a kitten. I think they probably have the best chance of being rehomed, as everyone loves a kitten. We'd rather take an older one that would be overlooked by everyone else.
