Feral cats or community cats; they belong to all of us, so says Jackson Galaxy and his correct. Those of us who know cats would totally agree with Jackson. In some countries most cats are community cats. That is the norm. In developed countries it is more about personal cat ownership.
National Feral Cat Day® was instigated by Alley Cat Allies to promote an awareness of the need to be compassionate towards feral cats and to increase the number of people involved in trap-neuter-return, the only humane way of controlling feral cat numbers. It is an opportunity for people who care about the welfare of feral cats to spread the word; to help defeat those who want to hurt or exterminate feral cats.
It takes place on the 16th October each year. The 2014 theme is “TNR: From the Alley…to Main Street.”
Anyone can get involved in organizing an event. Alley Cat Allies have a really nice poster than can be downloaded and used by event organizers.
National Feral Cat Day® is not only about Americans promoting care of the feral cat; it is also international.

Yesterday was National Feral Cat Day.
So many tented fundraisers going on.
So many festivities.
Such happiness.
I taste tested until I thought I would explode.
Ferals will always be the best part of my life.
Today I am happy that I saw my third Black Beauty Queen visiting to my terrace and asking for food. She is unique, shining black coat, and very shy eyes, but unfortunately I had no camera because Khadija was not at home, she had that. The beauty drank milk and ate dry cat food. I pet het three times. She never allow anyone to pet her, instantly attacks one with claws but I am lucky (father) that I can love her, touch her and sit beside her. One of my student was saying that she is very angry cat, I said no cat is angry, the way you deal or touch the cat is a kind of anger deal/touch.
Michael I share the amount of cat welfare here, This is 110 Pounds= 17,743 Rupees.
Deeply thank you and now waiting for the shops to open for buying the materials.
A sweet boy (I think).
Oh, those messy food stealing coons…
Perfect.
Make it happen.
