I can't kick a stray out in this weather can I?

A little ginger cat turned up on our doorstep this evening, utterly bedraggled and sounding really distressed (loud mewling, sounding quite unhappy). Feeling sorry for it in this horrible weather we gave him some food. He absolutely wolfed it down in seconds and was miaowing for more. He ate three bowls of dried food like he hadn't eaten in days. He looks quite healthy otherwise, and quite young. He's now purring loudly and sitting in front of the fire.

We have another cat (also a ginger youngster) who's oblivious and fast asleep on our bed. I'm not sure how he'd react to another cat in the house. The weather is horrible out, pouring with rain and a howling wind. I can't bear the thought of chucking this poor cat out in it. He hasn't got a collar, but as I said, he looks quite healthy. I haven't seen him before. Not sure what to do.

Am so glad you've been able to find his owner & that he is so loved&wanted - maybe he realised they were planning to take him to the V-E-T & bolted in case he came back minus something else Wink

I hope you're able to facilitate a reunion soon Smile

Still no sign this morning, and I'm at work all day so I'm not sure if we'll get him today. I hope he's adopted someone else who's feeding him. It is good to know where he should be living, so we can pop him back there when he does turn up.

Well the weather's not very nice today so perhaps he'll come back this evening.....
