This video has some captions to explain things like how many cats Onur gets neutered each month.

Onur is still trying to catch the black cat he saw a man desert a few months ago along the rocks.   He wants to get it neutered.   On previous videos the poor cat just hid in the boulders....now it is feeding with the other strays.

Toward the end of the video, Onur prayed for someone else to come with more food...as he had run out of food for the first time.   A lady with food did come!

He says municipalities catch stray cats and dump them along the ocean rocks.

If he tried that at the seaside here the seagulls would kill the cats to get at then food ... they are large and very aggressive and dont fear humans at all ...it is now illegal to feed gulls in the city as they attack humans to get at food they are eating

When we used to take the city bus to Santa Monica pier, the gulls would hover overhead.   When we had French fries, we'd toss them in the air and the gulls would catch them.

here they will take them out of your hands ... NEVER  let a child eat an ice cream or any sort of food near gulls as they have been known to injure the children taking the food out of the hands and even as they put it into mouths

I just remember going to the city dump in St. Pete, Florida 50 years ago working with my Stepdad

(law service) to dump grass clippings etc. every couple weeks and the millions of seagulls that blanketed

the landfill. Their motion overall almost made the dump look alive like it could stand up and be some

monster in a Spider Man  film....

Strays will certainly eat the dry but they LOVE the wet food!
