Evelyn: We have a crazy cat lady who helps the feral cats with the neuter and release program and feeding. We provide leftovers if we have appropriate ones and send canned food at which our spoiled kitty turns his nose up.

Nikki: yes yes and yes. the man is a good guy and really nice and awesome neighbor. but, he feeds them. 2x a day. at one point i counted 22 cats/kittens. down to about 8 or 9 now as most have been picked up. 4 or so have been returned. It's a mess.
