I am sure you are not looking for my personal opinion on feeding or not feeding feral cats.
I offer food for thought:
"Many people who encounter feral cats start feeding them, but feeding alone can actually make the situation worse. Feeding ferals increases their ability to give birth to even more kittens who are destined to suffer and die premature deaths. It is essential to get these cats off the streets in order to prevent not only their own suffering, but that of their offspring. Feeding should ONLY be done as a prelude to trapping, to get cats accustomed to eating in a certain place at a certain time."
In addition:
Your practice may be inadvertently attracting rodents.
Sorry.
