We put out food for a bunch of cats that live outside, staying mostly around our house and in the 30 acre vacant lot next door. Most of them we can't get near, although we know they appreciate the food. Some of them are more friendly to us and will let us pet them. We will try to bring these cats inside on those nights when it gets really cold. One of the cats has become very friendly to us. She is also very friendly with the male cats. She is one year old and so pregnant she looks like she is about to burst. We try to find homes for the kittens that are born regularly to the outside cats, but we are running out of friends that don't already have a kitten from us.
