Momma went for a walk tonight in our apartment complex. She had heard that some Ferrell cats were living in the woods at the edge of the property. Sure enough she spotted them. Momma said that there are at lest ten kittys out there. She wondered if there are any babies in the woods. She didn't go in there to find out because of the under brush and poison ivy, but momma said she might go buy some dry food tomorrow and sit it out in bowls to feed the cats. They are not living on our street which makes momma sad because now she is worried about how they are eating and if people over on that road are feeding them. Someone told momma that they have been hanging around the woods since last year. That a litter of kittens had been thrown out in the woods. Those kittens have had babies a few times momma suspects from the amount of cats she saw. Momma was mad to think someone did that and now all those kittys have no home. She told daddy tonight that she wonders if she puts food out on our patio will the cats come over from the other street. Kind of like the movie Field of Dreams where they say build it and they will come..Momma wonders..hmmmm
Feed them will they come. Guess we will see what happens.

How sad. But it sounds like you have a really kind momma. Some kitties have a hard time of it and it's because stupid people do stupid things. Is there an Operation Catnip type of group where you live so you can help those kittens not to have more kittens? -- Charlie
We do have some rescue groups in the area, but there is no leash law/cats can go out with a leash
here so I don't know if anyone would bother to come out here and try and trap them. It is so sad..

Fanks for coming to mine party!! I REALLY enjoyed it!
Even some humane societies will rent you traps so that you can trap them. Keep checking into feral cat rescue groups--they might be able to get you major discounts if you get females there and to have them spayed.
How sad. Maybe your local humane society can offer some guidance.
Mean people! You better believe they will come if you feed them. And they will invite their friends! Trap & neuter & release (TRN) or place if possible) is often the best solution. But they will come to depend on you for food if you start to feed them.
