1) I haven't been able to pick her up -- at all. The few times I've tried, even just trying to put a hand under her belly, she's made it clear in no uncertain terms that she doesn't want to be held. :RollingEyesSmiley5:
2) She is, however, seemingly totally comfortable around me. I suspect it has something to do with my being a reliable food source... :emoticon-animal-004:
3) She has shown signs of wanting to come in, but I'm not thrilled about that idea... since I can't have her as a pet. She is also quite vocal and makes lots of different vocalizations.
4) I presume she was checked for a chip when she was TNR'd... that's SOP for TNR. (For those who don't know about TNR, here is the local organization who I've been in contact with ... great people: https://www.trapdatcat.org)
5) I also forgot to mention that there are several other cats in the neighborhood, including one big black male who is NOT at all friendly and who chases all the other cats away... I've thusly nicknamed him "El Jerko". El Jerko will cry because the young female is getting fed, but he won't get any food because she knows that he will not approach me.
6) I can provide a pic or two, if anyone is curious about what these kitties look like.
