You might remember that a couple of weeks ago I sought advice on what
to do with a feral tomcat.
Partly because of the advice I had him captured and neutered. He gets
re-released into my backyard in a few hours. He's also had his shots.
Question: will he be less able to hunt for food or look after himself
now that he's neutered, or does neutering have no bearing in the
lifeskills department? I don't know because I've never had a cat
neutered before. (Spayed, yes.)

I have not heard of any issues with them not being able to hunt as
effectively. It does reduce the aggresive and territorial behaviour
which is to be expected. I am sure he will be perfectly ok after you
release him back. Are you going to continue to try and feed him if that
is what you were doing before?

Yes. I'm keeping on feeding him. Its just that I was worried that if I
couldn't feed him (vacation or illness) that he would be in harm.
