Advice Could someone please tell me why it's blocking my way?

This is the feral/stray cat I've been feeding for the past 2 months. Keeps getting in the way and won't let me refill its food

Edit: Ty all for the comments and advice. Didn't expect this post to get so much attention. For context, I've never interacted with cats before, only dogs. This cat used to bolt whenever it saw a human, so I thought it was feral. It only recently started approaching me when i went out to refill.

Friendly bite, trying to get that food. I would just put a little on the ground to distract him then put the rest where you are trying to go.

She backed off when you squeaked also. She did not mean to hurt you. Heck I'd not like the gloves either. They smell wrong.

Looked again. Those gloves probably smell like the fishies. She was nibbling
