They are gorgeous cats. Great work.

However, I would set out a few traps and get those kitties to a spay/neuter project asap!

Done. It's hard to tell but if you look close you can see their left ears have been clipped to indicate that we had them 'fixed'. We also feed/water them. They were born in our backyard so even though they are feral I can pick one of them up occasionally and can get close to the other one as well.

Those are beautiful! I love the last one. He looks like he's getting ready to pounce. Great pictures!

Yes they certainly don't have a feral look about them. That last shot's great. Have you enhanced their eye colour?

Thanks! No, eye color is not really enhanced, I did an overall color saturation boost just a tad and added a little contrast and sharpening and vignette on some but that's it.

Good for you! Most people wouldn't bother. Major kudos.
