I have two feral cats hanging our in my neighbor hood. One tabby and the other as black as a coal mine at midnight. The tabby will run from if I come any closer than about 35 yards. Very spooky. I've been within about fifteen feet of the black one in my yard, at least until it noticed me watching, then it either slinks away or takes off like bat out of hell.
Last night one of them was in the alley back of my house in heat. We use to have several coveys of quail and quite a few cottontail rabbits come into our back yard. Those damn cats have made them extinct. I haven't seen a rabbit or quail in the yard for years now. Bummer.
