Hi. I've been consistently for the past 10 months everyday at the exact same time @5:30 putting in front of our house some dry food for the ferals. First they were like 3 or 4 cats, but once they knew the schedule they are now 9-10 cats, 3 of them are -feral- kittens (I reckon 3-4 months old)..
I've always put enough food for all of them, and some kind unknown neighbors put water daiy for Them as well.
But now I'm moving out, in the next couple of days, and the thought that I know everyday they will be waiting eagerly for me at 5:30 but I will not be there for them is heartbreaking for me. I have no control over it but every time I get this though I just keep crying. Folks don't love cats so I couldn't adopt ones, but I found these guys and decided they will be my friends (even though with the no-touch-with-occasional-hisses rule). It's just hard for me.
My question is, can they survive? Especially the new kittens? I also worry that when cats eat much dry food they refuse to eat something else, is that applicable to outdoor ferals as well?
Thank you kind people.
