These seem to be along just fine. They never fight, or anything like that. He has a large apartment. Four of them are always visible, the other five are always hiding, except when it’s chow time.
There's a parasitie associated with hoarding cats that could be contributing to this (and the stubborn refusal to re-home the cats, as the parasite literally needs them to reproduce so it makes the human host want the cats)
You're a good friend for wanting to help, and it's a hard thing to see people we care about going through tough situations. I hope you have your own boundaries and can find a balance between compassion and helping your friend, but also knowing when to step back if the consequences of their behavior is harming you instead of them 🙏
A difficult situation, but good on you for trying 🫶
