TNR, fostering and adoption is a much more efficient way to take care of cats. In the past people created private sanctuaries. As cat populations fall and more cities become no-kill because of solid spay-neuter programs, hopefully all cats can live in private homes or be community cats if they are feral.

Here is research on feeding stations and full scale animal sanctuaries:
