Hi! This is my first time posting on my site so apologies if I post this thread incorrectly.
I live in a neighborhood with a colony of feral cats; I don't take care of them since my house is located at the end of a driveway (like a cul-de-sac but even narrower) where there are a lot of dogs and cars around. A woman way outside of the driveway feeds them, which is where they typically wander, but once in a while, they like to pass through my yard briefly. Currently, I have an 8-month-old cat that I've been caring for since October; she is spayed, has all her necessary vaccinations and such, and is an indoor cat.
Recently, a particular feral cat has been walking up to my doors (both front and back) and meowing, to which my cat will hurry over to the door and meow with them. My cat doesn't seem agitated; she just sits and meows back. The cat runs away even when I'm a few feet away from the door (as long as I'm in its vision I believe) so I believe it is feral; because it runs so quickly the only thing I can see about it is its grey fur. It likes to come throughout the afternoon and probably meows for my cat maybe 5-7 times per day separately. This has been happening for the third day straight.
Does anyone know why this might happen? I've read that cats do not even meow at each other so I'm quite confused.
