"Hello. My name is Carole Wilbourn. I'm the cat therapist here in New York City. In this clip, we're going to talk about feral cat behavior. A feral cat is a cat who is raised exclusively by other cats. So, he is normally afraid of humans because a human might mean destruction. In fact, generally if he sees a human or is near a human, he will take flight. Occasionally, a feral cat will fight instead of taking flight, if he feels threatened or anxious. This is a way for him to survive. He is not fighting to be mean or nasty. It's a mean, a means of survival. So, if ever you see a feral cat and he's running form you, don't take it personally. In fact, a feral cat can be socialized and can make a wonderful pet. So, once again, this is Carole Wilbourn, the cat therapist in New York City."
