All ferals aren’t equal. There are neutered ferals who are as unobtrusive as can be. One my mom feeds is very affectionate, and yet, he is still feral. Conversely, many domesticated cats act “feral” around strangers.
Don’t paint with such a broad brush
All of my cats have been rescues, and one was a feral (now an indoor princess, there are coyotes in this area). I was referring to out and out ferals, not barn cats or the “neighborhood” fellow.
I was thinking more of ones in the wild, and the damage they could do to Australia’s unique animal life.
