You all have been very helpful and I'm still new at this and so confused on what I need to do! Smokey is our main feral, he is scared of us but always came out right after we fed him and when we walked away. We made this house for him and he had no problems going inside to eat. Now there are 2 ferals l, one of them smokey gets along with, the other one attacked smokey twice that I know of. Blackie, the one who attacks is always looking over our house and looks a evil. This morning I went to the little house to put food out for smokey and I saw him behind our fence which was his original home before all our snow so I snapped pics, so excited to see him. I put his fav food out but he came out and walked around his house but wouldn't go inside then few minutes later he came back walked around his house didn't go inside and then just left. So he didon't eat yet this morning and I saw him near the fence twice and talked to him and he starred at me and Blackie the one who attacks him is near by now l. I don't know where smokey is and he has to be hungry! Why would he be scared now ti go inside the house that for months. Ben eating in it? Do we bring him inside and make him an indoor pet ? How do we know if he is happier outside and won't be happy inside? He looks lonely and sad and i know smileys hungrry but ran off
