Anyone care for outdoor cats?
I see lots of cats outside in my neighborhood and I try to care for them when I can. Especially right now since it is winter, anyone want to drop some tips for caring for neigborhood cats? One of mine is lots of cats die of dehydration in the winter since any water source is frozen. If you leave water out for them, you can always put hand warmers underneath the bowl so it will keep it heated and stop it from freezing hopefully giving the little guys time to enjoy. <a href="https://alleycatadvocates.org/communitycat-care-center/creating-winter-shelters/">This is a great article </a> on making DIY cat shelters that we use during the winter time and they get great use out of it!

Just want to inform people of some new /c/ I created today
Gaming - https://midwest.social/c/gaming [https://midwest.social/c/gaming] USA News/Politics - https://midwest.social/c/usa [https://midwest.social/c/usa] Soccer - https://midwest.social/c/soccer [https://midwest.social/c/soccer] Not sure if this is how official Lemmy structure is supposed to be, but figured we could have dupe /c/ of these comms on our instance. They can x-post from other instances if needed but also can give a more specific insight into these topics that would tailor more to people in midwest.social.
Hopefully more USA news from people familiar with it
Saw the [email protected] [/c/[email protected]] comm and has a… suspicious amount of negative articles and specific people who submit things and stuff. Just want to get some actual news up in a /c/ that Americans can refer to if they would like.
