cropped ear

His ear finally healing- his head tells the community- he is a feral cat who has been neutered and has a right to live out his life. It tells animal services, this is a "kept cat" and they will seek the person who provides for his colony.
Prince was registered in a colony of one. He is a Prince.

Safe ferals play too.
Obviously, he brought his pretty self back HOME after a few days away to discover his new residence. He also brought a few new friends who wanted to eat his food. I had left the porch screen door ajar so he could come in to eat and leave. So he would know he was free.
My 2 cats thus couldnt go out if the porch door was ajar since they were basically indoor cats. They hated Prince more than before, if possible.
