However, I do feed stray and feral cats on my elevated back deck. The deck's height seems to help deter raccoons and skunks, ensuring that only the cats get fed. To further discourage unwanted nuisance animals, I spray the grass and soil beneath the deck with white distilled vinegar once a week—it seems to be working as a deterrent.

Well since you feed feral cats and don't mind them in your yard I wouldn't put up a bird feeder or a birdhouse for nesting. The cats will definitely get them and I'm sure you wouldn't want to see that but everybody has their own little hobby to help animals
Hypothetically, I would separate the bird area from the cat zone by at least 5,000 square feet and place the feeder high in a tree. However, I see your point and agree—it's not the smartest idea to feed two types of animals on the same property when they are essentially natural enemies.
Since I have to choose, I'm sticking with the kitties. You can actually pet and enjoy their company, and they seem to appreciate the feedings. Plus, in theory, cats help deter rodents from invading your property. I like to think my home is under Kitty Protection
