Can confirm!

My family's rescued lots of stray cats over the years. We've had a few neighbors in the past that leave their cats outside in the winter but with food, water, and a little bit of catnip it's easy to get the cats accustomed to our home. Just keep leaving the food in the same place and maybe try to call the cat when you bring the food out. They'll eventually put together that you're the bringer of food and love and headpats!
