TARTARA TARTARA the Friends of Ferals badge is for those who not only look after strays and ferals, but are also active in spaying and neutering. That is an essential part of being a Feral Friend. Are you able to do that? :)

We did it in our cat !
We taking care on stray cats somewhere up to 10years, right now we feed 5 stray cats twice a day ! We are doing it by ourselves without any other help and we don't belong in any animal welfare group or something similar ! That's all !

Yes, most people spay/neuter their own cats. It is the cats who are left to wander. If we feed them without spaying and neutering we're allowing more and more cats to breed and to live really difficult and often painful lives. :(

This is an excerpt from our article on helping Stray/Feral cats:
What you should do is take care of neutering any cat that you feed. Feeding and not neutering is nothing short of cruel. You mean well, but in this case, it is the proverbial road to hell that is paved with good intentions. The cats will breed. The cats will also get sick and injured due to mating-related catfights. Within a few months, you're going to be way out of your depth and you'll end up abandoning the cats as you won't be able to afford that many and they will likely die of disease and starvation.
