So my husband's mom has some feral cats inside the house. The 2 she has she got from the momma that had kittens under the stairs across the street. She crates them all day (when she's at work) and at night when she goes to bed, because they are wild, or at least one of them. I think they are spayed and neutered (ones a boy, other girl). I guess you could say she is a hoarder somewhat and doesn't want them wreaking everything. Then she has cats that are outside cats, about 3. I'm not really sure about their story but she does feed them everyday outside. I think she tried to give them to the animal shelter but they had too many. Anyway she has noticed that more cats are showing up that aren't here's. She's kind of wondering what she can do about that?
My opinion, and I don't know if its right but either feed all cats inside or find the outside ones homes, because I think that the other cats have pretty much found a food source outside and will continue to get food from her as long as it's outside. She doesn't want the other cats as she is a single mom and just can't support all of them financially. I also hate it that she crates the inside ones. I'm trying to work on what to tell her about that. I know she took the two in but I feel like what good is it if your crating them. Cat's need space to roam, they are hunters, and the inside cats do not go outside at all.
So what do you guys think?!?!
