What's the Difference?
Stray Cat -- A domestic cat that strayed from home and became lost or was abandoned. Because a stray cat was once a companion animal, he/she can usually be re-socialized and placed in an adoptive home.
Feral Cat Colony -- A group of free-roaming cats living in a specific geographic area. Prior to the implementation of Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR), feral cat colonies consist of both stray (tame) and feral (wild) cats of all ages, from kittens through adults. After TNR is completed, a feral cat colony consists exclusively of adult feral cats.
