Caring for feral cats from sunrise to sunset.
Feral Friends of Sunnyside is a group of five local volunteers committed to improving the lives of community (feral) cats who live outdoors in our Denver, CO neighborhood.
Cats are not a native species and cannot live independently without human intervention. Without consistent care, outdoor cats face hunger, illness, injury, and unchecked population growth. While feral cats live very different lives than domestic cats, thoughtful, ongoing care makes a meaningful difference.
We provide daily food, water, and shelter, coordinate humane Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR), and raise funds for necessary veterinary care such as spay/neuter surgeries, dental procedures, and treatment for painful conditions like severe matting.
Our goal is simple: reduce suffering, stabilize the population, and support the best possible quality of life for cats who depend on us.
Every day, from early morning feedings to evening check-ins, we show up for cats who depend on consistent human care to survive.

Each cat we care for has their own personality, history, and comfort level with humans. While most are not adoptable, all benefit from consistent care and humane management.

Taffy
Tortoiseshell longhair
Taffy comes running when you call her name and is known for being talkative and sweet—while still keeping a respectful distance. She's had visitors over the years, including a friendly cat named Salty, who was successfully socialized, adopted, and now lives at an office nearby. Taffy remains a neighborhood favorite, always happy to greet volunteers on her terms.

Gray Boy
Gray shorthair
Small but mighty, Gray Boy is full of spirit and enthusiasm. He runs up to the car at feeding time and eagerly reaches for his bowls—sometimes showing off his claws in the process. Volunteers use creative tools like grabbers to keep everyone safe, understanding that his behavior comes from excitement, not aggression. A true junkyard cat, Gray Boy isn't shy about saying hello. He's also had many visitors over the years, including Butter Scotch and several kittens who were trapped, neutered, and either returned or adopted when eligible.

Lily
Black shorthair
Lily is no longer part of the feeding route, but she remains one of our favorite success stories. She showed enough social behavior to be safely trapped and transferred to a shelter, where she was further socialized and eventually adopted into a home. We love a success story.

Goldie & Junior
Golden longhair & black shorthair
This bonded pair lives in a nearby warehouse lot. They'll come when called, but prefer to keep their distance—often hiding behind cars until they feel safe. Goldie usually leads the way, with Junior close behind.

Ms. Tortie & Blackie
Tortoiseshell shorthair & black shorthair
These littermates stay close together. Ms. Tortie is outspoken and doesn't shy away from letting you know when she's hungry, slipping through a hole in the fence to demand that dinner be served promptly before retreating back behind the fence with Blackie to wait for food.

Ghost & Fancy Pants
Gray longhair & tuxedo shorthair
These two boys are beauties through and through. Fancy Pants, a striking black tuxedo, has grown comfortable at feeding time and is often found lounging proudly on top of his shelter. Ghost lives up to his name—skittish and elusive—but reliably appears when he feels safe enough to eat.
