Many stray cats live by the rubbish bins located on busy roads. They are always in danger of being hit or killed by a car or poisoned by cat-hating people. Regular feeding helps to keep them alive and as healthy as possible. This also keeps them off the streets and out of the bins.
Many stray cats have health problems due to their living conditions. They often get eye infections and run the risk of losing one or both eyes. Broken teeth as a result of their food have to be extracted and they need treatment against parasites – just to name a few problems.

Never put food directly on the ground, because hard surfaces can damage cats’ teeth. The most common problem we see in outdoor cats is broken teeth due to eating off hard surfaces. This is not only extremely painful, but it also causes the cats to eventually become unable to eat. Feed cats in a sturdy bowl in a discrete location. If that isn’t possible, Put the food only on soft ground, but never on concrete, pavement or other hard surfaces.
Bones, whether cooked or raw, are not recommended for cats. Small, cooked bones, like poultry bones, can splinter and break while eating, potentially leading to an intestinal blockage or perforation that’s a veterinary emergency. Even raw, these bones can cause intestinal problems and may harbor bacteria that can give your cat a serious infection.
Onion powder, onion salts, cooked onion and dried onion can all cause serious problems. Even a small bit of onion in broth is harmful, and cats should steer clear of it. It only takes about 5 grams of onion per kilogram of body weight for your cat to start having symptoms. Since onions can be so dangerous and every cat reacts differently, it’s very important to avoid onions altogether.
