Hi Aaron, given the location, so close to houses, and the apparent lack of fear at being near you, this looks like a stray cat from one of the nearby houses. MattM gave us this definition:- "A feral cat is one that has no interaction with humans whatsoever. A stray or domestic cat will roam a suburb, and be fed by people, but a feral cat will flee and do all its own hunting." What do you think?
