I have a mom and 4 youngster feral cats I have been feeding since mid summer. Now that it is cold I am working on putting out a house for them. However, I am unsure of where to place the house. I have read that it should be in a sunny spot. The best sunny spot I have right now is in my back yard where my dogs go out. I have another location but it is on the front side of the house. I did not think this would work since anytime I leave the house I might scare them away but it would have better protection from weather in the front because it could be under part of the house. It would also be closer to where I feed them. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
