Yes, he is trying to get closer to your hands, which it regards as a source of pleasure.

Larry does this. It's like he rears on his hind legs to meet my hand with his head.
"Pet me! Pet me! I can't wait for your hand to reach me! I need to reach your hand!"

Are you interested in befriending this stray cat? It does sound as though you have been Chosen.

You could start carrying a baggie of kibble with you and if you see him/her again, feed the kitty, every time you see him/her.

Doesn't that make your heart go "Awww
"? Have you considered adopting this cat, since this cat has obviously adopted you...
