Porch kitty question
#12
Taking food in at night would be the easiest solution. I’ve seen videos where community or feral cat feeders use a 4x4 inch post and mount a deck on it with flashing to dissuade other critters from climbing. Cats are good leapers, raccoons climb but are not good vertical jumpers.

If you have a covered porch I was thinking using 2 “L” brackets to support an 8 inch wide piece of wood (8x24x1) for food and water dishes and attach it at least 40 inches above the deck. Then using a ramp or portable step get the cat adjusted to finding it’s food up there and then remove the assistance, it should keep most critters away.
