Look at the picture 2 posts back at 8:32, when he was called Mikesch for the first time, and this one, 1/2 hour later. He already looks like he's decided the "magic word" was spoken here! I really do think they're aliens.....

He's purring like crazy when I pet him. It's over -- it's all just details now, but he's effectively tamed. Doerschein, my friend -- you're an angel! Just like that, from a continent away, you solved a big problem. This was the toughest feral cat taming I've EVER had in 14 years, you solved it in less than a day, just by finding him his true name! ! Bless you my friend!

He's licking my fingers and purring up a Storm, when I call him Mikesch!! This it too much!! it's like a switch was thrown! 11 hours ago he was hissing at me and had an expression on his face like I was Khadaffi!

OMFG!!! He's purring, and grasping my finger in his little paw, when I call him Mikesch!! This is less than 12 hours after doerschein named him! If this isn't big, big news, I don't know what is!

Soon to be Mikesch, and Storm, barely beyond feral himself. Mikesch is a TINY bit less crazy than he was 1 week ago. Baby steps for baby cats.
