Oh wow, you're not a particularly pleasant person! As already stated, cats choose their family. You cannot control that. You can ask people to be considerate and not feed a feline that visits them but you cannot, as the tone of your writings suggests, "demand" people not to do so. I think of choice of word with "deliberately" has sparked the initial response you have received. Before you throw your charm at me I will point out I am in a similar situation where my feline chum visits all over the neighbourhood, not just looking for cuddles, a cosy wash basket but also food. He often returns home with a very round tummy. You may find, if you ask around directly to people in your street, that they will be "oh he's your cat!" and from then on there is a different relationship and understanding. Our street know how my feline beastie is. Most know where he lives. We know he still get food but at the same time you can adjust to his pattern instead of insisting on following what has always been.

Might be helpful if you indicated what area you are. There are many similar looking felines out and about...
