I am trying to make friends with a feral skinny black cat in our neighborhood. So I give her some food in the morning and at night. BUT if she doesn’t eat her food, raccoons will come out and grab the remainder. The other night, there were 5 of them, and the biggest one, I swear his body was the size of a 5 gallon bucket.
This guy makes friends with racoons:
Good on you for helping out the feral.
My mom had three siblings from the early 2000s. Only one left out of that bunch. She’s not looking so great but she’s about 17 now. Amazing for a feral considering all the hazards and cold winters. Plus my mom has got other ferals she feeds.
We rescued five feral cats between 2011 and 2014. For of them were a mom and her 3 babies. We still have Mom, one baby, and one other. They’ve been wonderful pets.
