If they were filled with leaves they might accommodate small rodents, but unless it's not all that cold where you live those buckets can't have enough R-value for a feral cat without piling a huge amount of leaves and brush or straw on top and doing something to make the opening smaller. You could try cardboard boxes filled with straw (not too tightly packed) each box inside of a garbage bag, with an opening just slightly bigger than a cat's head. The cats could then hollow out an area in the straw just big enough for their bodies. Then just pile the compost on top and around the boxes. A good snowfall would make them even warmer.
In quoting my post, you affirm and agree that you have not been goaded, provoked, emotionally manipulated or otherwise coerced into responding.

Not much going on foodwise in the garden this week. Went from subfreezing weather to a high of 69 and we are heading back into freezing weather again. Here is a sad pot of onions:

Have a whole bed of them out in the field that looks no better, but this is a pot for little hands to garden in so they leave my big hands alone.
Shredded a bunch of paper/cardboard and put out to compost. Guess if civilization collapses I will be eating slime mold and cardboard:

At least the warm weather allowed the landscaping to bounce back a little. Planted several 1 gal. rhododendron that fall I got on half-price close-out. I thought they were goners this time last week but that almost 70° day thawed them back out and perked them back up:

Anything going on with anybody else's garden/landscaping? This is a good time to do all that brush clearing and new projects building.

All I have is limited space on my balcony- not sure if I will plant this year.
