Stu's Feral Cat Colony

Feeding time for feral cats from an old navy base. All cats have been TNR (trap-neuter-return) so that they cannot reproduce. If you would like to learn more about TNR, please check out this link to Alley Cat Allies:

A great idea using running water. Cats love running water because it's cleaner and fresher than water that's been sitting. Hey, even feral cats are finicky. Really admirable effort here. I salute you. BTW, did you cut the holes in the fences for the cats? That's another terrific idea.

@79barkingspider- Thanks. Yup.... ANNA (cat with two color eyes) only likes to drink running water. And you saw correctly, those are cat shaped holes in fence. On other side of fence, it reads: CATS ONLY! The holes in fence lead to my neighbor. She feeds the feral cats in the morning, and I feed in the afternoon. Thanks for checking out my video. --stu

instead of looking after feral cats dont let ur cats become feral. if u cannot handle ur cats or ur cat had kittens give them to a pet shop or shelter (preferabl;y non kill) dont jsut abandon them on the street etc. Dont let ur cats be out door cats as the can runny away and become feral. feral cats = fault of humans :)

@TheRivalConcept: AMEN brother/sister. I trapped about 30 feral cats from this old navy base and had them sterilized... no telling how many more feral kittens this prevented from being born.

If I ever get a house with a yard, I would love to do this(I got a few years though, still in the college dorms lol). You're an inspiration really :) It's nice to know there are good people in the world like you helping them.

@BLUEstuartist I just want to say thank you for doing what you can for these ferals. I trapped three myself and actually took them into my home once they were neutered/spayed, got their shots, tested for feline leukemia. Out of the 3, 2 are doing pretty good, one is progressing much slower. One is very affectionate and loves to be petted and neck scratched, etc. My heart breaks 4 feral cats. Its because of humans they these cats suffer and live a very harsh life.

@BLUEstuartist yeah i heared they do that in australia too. most feral cats are desexed and released cuz RSPCA etc dont have enough space an well...older cats aint so much in demand unlike lil kittens. I know u can tame feral cats but not many people have the time to do so. But the blue and white long haired cat and the bi eyed white cat seem really friendly for feral cats.
