I posted recently that a cat has been coming to my house recently. I have fed it and given it shelter outside. The next step is to try to get it in a crate so I can take it to at least get spayed/neutered. I have yet to determine if it's male or female.
In any case, the cat is EXTREMELY friendly. It rolls over and wants to play. It is not at all afraid of people and comes right up to everyone, even reaching up to put its front paws on you. It also appears to try to meow or hiss but nothing comes out. That concerns me a little. I don't know what kind of cat illnesses could cause a loss of voice. Also, after it eats, it coughs. It doesn't bring anything up.
So, is this a cat that needs care, regardless of whether it belongs to someone or not?
Because it does seem to come around at the same time everyday and is so friendly, I'm inclined to believe that it does belong to someone. It is not de-clawed, so it could be an outdoor cat. On the other hand, it could be a stray. I'm not sure what to do. It looks like it would make a very nice pet. It also appears to be pretty young.
