You know the reason it’s a feral cat, is because people let the cats roam free. It’s the result of people neglecting their pets and letting them roam to begin with.
This a compounding issue and people are justifying loose feral cats, because they found a loose feral cat so it must remain feral.
Barn cats with a job on a farm in the country are obviously a different story, my issue is more directed at the cats roaming in urban neighbourhoods, with no purpose/job.
Picture your neighbourhood with feral dogs…you’d be annoyed/upset/scared when you come across one taking a massive dump on your lawn and it gets defensive about its territory. Cats are realistically no different but somehow socially accepted. It makes no sense.
Yes, I will bring my half feral barn cat inside.
I used to be a kennel worker, met thousands of cats over the years. Never once met a cat who did not adapt to being indoor only within a month
But then who will catch the mice in my barn?
