  • It’s a complicated issue.

    I live in an area with an outdoor cat ban, but some people in my neighborhood still let their cats out. Nobody in the local government does anything about it.

    Look up local cat rescues. Ask them about “Trap, Neuter, Release” - it’s a type of program to help curb feral cat populations. They can also help you find ways to assist the cats without attracting more or increasing the population.

    Cats won’t generally mess with skunks or raccoons. The injuries you describe could be from fights with other animals, or could has been caused by other things. Also, cats are resourceful and will find ways to stay warm in the cold.

    You’re right, it’s heartbreaking. But I’ve done some rescuing, and I’ve had to accept that I can’t save them all. But you might be able to help them somewhat.
