Hopefully this isn't a dumb question, but I've had almost no experience with cats, other than starting to feed 2-3 ferals over the last six months.
The one I feed regularly (Stalker, a super skittish long haired Tuxedo) already had a clipped ear (THANK GOD), but there's another cat (Sidekick) that was around infrequently, but now visits every night.

Shared Clip | Nest (from about an hour ago)
I'm assuming that Sidekick is a female? Sidekick doesn't make those noises if I'm around, sometimes makes them when approaching while I'm not present, and almost always makes them if Stalker is there. There doesn't seem to be any signs of aggression (other than the tail swishing), but Stalker is afraid of everything from other cats to front porch mats. The reason I ask is because I found a vet that will do TNR, and will take a male like, the next day, but told me that they would have to schedule out a few weeks for a female.
