I was asked to give 4 totally feral kittens a chance. They are about 8 weeks old, eating on their own, but they are throwing a hissing and spitting fit as soon as a human comes near! And they were badly starved.
I put them in the cage, gave them some food and left them alone. This morning they seemed to be a bit more comfortable and I was able to touch one kitty (that one acts like the boss of the others) while she was eating and he/she didn't complain, so that's a good start.
I wasn't able to snatch really good pics, but you'll get the idea. I bet they are covered in fleas too..the junkyard owner brought them to me, knowing that they would be put down at the shelter...too many non-feral kittens there right now:

This one acts like the leader.

They are actually black and white, but ya don't see the white here at all LOL.
They appear dirty but healthy. Stool and everything is normal.
