This item comes courtesy of my buddy (and fellow cat lover) Diana Gee. She writes:

I’m trying to help the caretaker for the feral cat colonies on India Street get some assistance. She sent me this via email: “Two feeders needed for cat colony on India Street, between West and Franklin. Due to the sudden death one of the colony care takers, I need to put a new schedule together. Help is urgently needed to feed this colony in the evenings. Feral colony consists of 6 cats, all very good animals. They eat between 7-8 P.M. Feeders would provide food and water. Must be reliable. Please email: vbondart (at) hotmail (dot) com”

Otherwise I have been advised that folks wishing to help our feral furry friends in other ways (For example, by doing TNR: trap, neuter and release or simply keeping an eye on our neighborhood’s feral colonies), should contact Diana Gee via email at: dianagee (at) nyc (dot) rr (dot) com. Thanks!
