Please could you advise?!
We currently rent a house on a private manor house estate, it is quiet with around 30 other houses and apartments, no busy roads though cars come and go and lots of woodland/ gardens/ parkland. There are neighbours who own cats that wander the grounds of the estate.
For the past month we have been visited by this little fella/lady (see photo) who sits and waits by our patio door, is confident in walking in the house, is very friendly towards us (rubs against us, licks my hand, wants a lot of fuss, tail vibrates etc) and isn't jumpy or nervous at all.
I have asked two separate long standing residents as to who the owner of the cat is, both have replied that he doesn't belong to anyone, that a few different neighbours feed him, that they believe a previous resident left him when they moved.
My dilemma is this. I love the cat and would love to adopt him but we are moving house in about two weeks, to a less rural location (not city, just a suburban street). Am I wrong to consider taking him in, or better to leave him in an environment that is familiar?
