What is a Feral Cat?
A feral cat is typically born in the wild or outdoors with little to no human interaction. If you attempt to get too close or try to pet them, feral cats view your hand as a claw that will harm them and will hiss and/or run away.

Hawai'i has MILLIONS of feral cats, daily dumping toxoplasmosis into the ocean causing deformities and death in Endangered Species as well as pregnant women, and daily exterminating other Endangered Species. Just imagine the millions of people those feral cats could nourish! Aloha!

Hello Eve, This time of the year Romeo, i named this cat, He is not a feral cat. Just let outdoors to roam wher he wants. But there are other cats the roam the yard. not sure if they are feral. My car will be an indoor cat. She will be safe. Out door cats have a short life. Hugs.

They will attack with biting and clawing that is horrible. I have a cat that stays outside and has a penned-in place to eat, sleep that is safe. There has been a cat I named big orange who comes around to eat my cat's food. If I go outside and he is there, he runs. There was one wild cat that came up about 5 years ago and he would chase me, and he bit me twice on my heel as I was going inside. I trapped and took him to the pound. I enjoyed reading your work. Your visit to my page was nice. Sara

Sara, they have multiplied, and it is really resenting it. I won't get near them... I am also afraid they might attack my dog when we are outside. Thank you for stopping by. Hugs and blessings my friend
