Absolutely FANTASTIC work. As an animal lover, it's so hard for me to understand why is it that the most selfless and innocent are, and have always been, the ones who suffer the most... is it because they're voiceless? Anyway, loved your work... and of course, GMV

Very emotional gallery.We have the same problem here in Australia,with an average cost of 200 dollars for desexing, people are dumping their cats rather than spend that money on their pets.They get them as kittens then the novelty wears off, they are going on holidays or some such thing and all of a sudden these creatures become disposable items.All my cats came from same circumstances as you portray here.I hope you have great success with your book, I am working on something similar here in OZ.Big vote for this gallery!!

Wishing you much success with your book. Your images capture both their joy of life and the trials of being homeless. Hopefully, your effort will touch many hearts. While stationed in Hawaii I took care of a colony of feral cats, feeding, trapping, neutering. It was rewarding and heartbreaking at the same time.

I see you like cats too!! I volunteer at a shelter, that is lucky enough to have it's own hospital. So every cat adopted is spayed or neutered before leaving. Thank you for sharing the story of the urban cats.
