A couple of feral cats, of which there are many on the island. These cats are prolific breeders and while there are some spay and neuter programs here, the number of feral animals doesn’t seem to go down.

We don’t have feral cats here… they’d be lunch for coyotes and bobcats! 😕

Not too many threats like that here, though mongooses will take them on!

I love the fluffiness if the one in the back. If you’d like to do a little shoutout about the feral cats you’d be welcome to do a guest post btw. 🙂

One of the problems is that when there’s a feral colony being looked after, people tend to dump unwanted kittens from their own cats in that area. So even if the ferals are being spayed or neutered, the numbers don’t go down.

And other pets, other animals too. It is sad.

Feral but pretty! One of my favorite family pets growing up was a feral cat we adopted. They seem to have the most personality.

They do have personality. Some of the feral cat colonies are looked after and the cats look pretty good. Some of the others look the worse for wear, which is a bit sad.

I have a buff/orange cat, his name is Hans. My son rescued him as a kitten with his back legs stuck beneath a fence. He was a feral cat, and now, one of hte sweetest cats I’ve ever had in my home. The one holdover from feral days is he will allow no one to pick him up.

Interesting that, even being rescued as a kitten, he still won’t be picked up. Mind you, some fully domestic cats are like that.
