When I was a kid we "adopted" a feral cat.
My Dad named her "Reject", because everyone else on the block rejected her.
She only came in the house once.
My Dad made her a bed of old blankets high atop the wood pile in the carport. He fashioned them into sort of an igloo shape.
In the winter he put a 100-watt trouble light in the bed.
One winter day we found a lot of blood in the snow on the path to the carport.
She was beat up pretty bad.
My Dad took a chance... picked her up and brought her into the house and down to the basement.
There was a nook under the stairs, behind his tool bench... Reject saw that "safe" spot and ran to it.
We slid food and water to her twice a day for three weeks... and a newspaper... hoping she would do her business on it.
For the most part she missed the paper, but the basement didn't stink too bad.
One day my Dad propped open the back door and when we returned Reject was gone.
The next time we saw her she look pretty good.
A few years later, after always seeing her weekly, we never saw her again.
Feral cats will accept your help when they know they need it. Its a shame your Vet does not recognize that.
Best of luck.
Dean.
