    @robchapman locked bottle drop, but also kibble dispenser. The ferals in the neighborhood knew to watch anyone lingering near it, and converged on the freshly dispensed kibble as soon as you withdrew far enough to not be a threat anymore. Though the design seemed a bit flawed to me. It just dumped a bunch of kibble into an open bin that was exposed to the weather. So potentially dumping it on top of moldy food. One hopes the bin is scrubbed frequently.

              @jessie I love this from a shared social infrastructure framing - it's like we can feel street cats better than we can care for unhoused peopled πŸ˜•

                      ... but actually, there may be some truth in that. nearby a (quasi-?) reliable source of food might be a place where one also finds mamas and kittens.

                          @codinghorror Istanbul, I’ve only seen the machines up around the Grand Bazzar but there’s informal cat food and water stations around the city and different parts of the city give out little shelters folks can set up for cats.
