Business & farm

What confuses me is the fact that this 'business' serves feral cats as my customers. Everything I have spent so far, all thruout 2022, has been for food and meds for them. I guess my business has had doors open all of 2022.  I expect during 2023 I'll receive money from people willing to help pay the expenses, and this would be my business income.

Does this comply with the irs definition  of a business? My previous questions still apply.
