My 2 cats came from a feral colony right outside my apartment and I have been helping all the ferals outside since I first noticed them when I moved to my place last year.
I'm a fisherman who sometimes comes home with a few catches. I filet the fish on my back deck, which is when the ferals all come running over waiting for me to give them food. I toss stuff such as skin, head, guts, tail, backbone, etc to them and most eat. I'll even come home with smaller fish from smaller ponds just for the ferals, which is a good way for controlling overpopulation of certain fish.
2 other neighbors in the building I live in feed the ferals everyday, with 1 being the morning person and the other being the afternoon. I'm the evening/night feeder.
2 certain ferals let me hand feed them. 1 is one of Dolly's sister who even meows at me begging for food and the other is a tabico kitten.
I also leave a plate outside of any fish or meat remainders after cooking.
2 other items I leave outside for them are a small glass tray filled with water and a cheap litter box with an old towel folded in it.
Anything such as old socks, belt, or strips of run down pants I have nailed for them to play with.
Here's pics of certain ferals relaxing outside my apartment or waiting for food. 2 other pics show the September litter trapped to get fixed before releasing.
Dolly's sister is the tuxedo and her brother is the tiger. The sister is friendly and would make a good house cat. The brother would make a good house cat too. He is more of a hunter than the sister because he doesn't mind grinding through a fish's head or a small catch.
The tabico is a very sweet kitten who doesn't mind being hand fed and would make a good house cat.
The long hair is the master and mother of all ferals. She is a hisser at other animals and her own cats but would make a good house cat.
The white cats are 2 of Wren's sisters. Both are on the shy side.
