We have gorgeous feral cat that is living in a log pile in our yard. When we first saw him about 2-3 months ago, he looked BAD. Scraggly, skinny, he could barely walk. We began feeding him and he looks a LOT better now!
He is scared of humans. I am concerned about the winter weather and have been looking into making him a shelter.
BUT my cat (who has seen the feral through the window) has become 'jealous'. He was in the window a couple of times when I fed the feral and he left me a few 'nuggets' (poop) on my bed to tell me he is not happy with the situation. Our dog has also began barking at the door & window.
What to do? I have called a couple of feral rescues in the area but no one has gotten back to me. I wish the cat could be socialized and have a home...I hate the idea of him out there in our winter weather! But I am concerned about the effect it is having on MY cat.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
