So looking at the time of the posts, you got the boy cat just a couple hours after you wrote this one! That is really good news and I replied to the other thread about him. You must be so relieved and happy that they can move on to the next phase of their lives.
In my experience, male adult cats including those who are neutered love young female cats. I don't know if it is the hormones, even if the male is neutered, but every single young female I ever rescued when I owned an indoor male was allowed to play, cuddle, become irritating, hang onto their necks, etc. Definitely you want to get the kittens checked out though so your boy will have to be patient.
This is all very intriguing about seeing a cat who resembles Luna so much. Putting your hair and his fur was a very good idea as it might help her to recall her old life. Very possible that if she has found a place to stay, even just a location that she likes, that she is sticking there. All of my outdoor ferals have places that they stick close to and a route that they take when they go out. Some of their choices are not that logical, especially given that they could utilize my yard but choose not to. Cats always know where other community cats are and are careful to avoid those that they know are trouble and bond with those they like.
Luna could certainly look different by now...thinner would be logical, and more mature, maybe even a little different. Do you think that with all the canvassing you have done that you could have missed another colony? Around here, I think that I know about most community cats, even those that I do not tend to or were TNRed by someone else. Sure, there is always the guy who is probably entirely nocturnal that no one has ever seen, but you have done a lot of investigating over the last few weeks.
I am really impressed how many people in your area appear to be helping feral and outdoor cats.
