Hello,
DH and I got back home about an hour ago and found a very distressed, miaowing cat on our doorstep. She was very clingy and desperate to come inside.
She has a collar on so obviously belongs to someone but there is no phone number / address etc on it. She doesn't seem to be injured but she is pretty thin.
I am worried that she is lost and is trying to get in from the cold. We can't let her in because we have a dog and a cat who would both go nuts and we don't want to keep her inside in case she knows where she is and she's just out exploring.
I have put a box outside for her (tucked in under some steps so it's out of the wind) with a fluffy cat blanket in it and I've left her some dry food which she started wolfing down immediately. I've also had a quick walk around to check for missing cat posters and didn't see any.
Do you think she will be OK outside? It is soooo cold! I would hate to think of my cat being outside all night but we really can't have her in the house as our two pets would probably attack her.
Can anyone else think of anything more I can do? Poor little thing.
Thanks for any advice you can give me
