Three extremely wild cats installed in the pen in the goat byre.
No idea what I've got - whether male or female. Pretty, two black and white, one grey and white. They've all 'gone to ground' - it's going to take them a while to get used to all the new sounds and living companions (the chooks are often in there too during the day, idle beasts.
I can see a couple of black splodges which is someone's side, one is behind the sleeping boxes and one must be completely under the piece of duvet as I can see neither hide nor hair of him/her.
Yep, researching into toxoplasma, they only shed oocysts for a fortnight or so, during their first infection. So the chances are that these are over that, as they are feral captures and I'd guess are around a year old.
They'd been in the shelter for months apparently. So I'm feeling that even if they don't have long lives here, their lives will be happier for coming here.
Hope they settle in due course and become a bit friendly
