I have seen a white cat wandering around my house for two days. My Miss Piggy is usually very territorial but this cat seem the exeption. They are almost the same size. I saw this cat sneaking in my house to steal Miss Piggy's food. Well she seems like she doesn't mind now. After a while I decided to chase him or her away did not work. In the end I thought that this cat will eventually leave after feed my mistake. Now the cat found his or her way to my bedroom where Miss Piggy and I were sleeping. What do I do? is sleeping in my bed whit us. I petted the cat a bit and found small injures like he or she was attacked by other cats. I don't know what to do.

If you would like another cat, keep her. But take her to a vet first thing to be tested and checked to see if the cat has a chip in her and another family far away aren't looking for her. If no chip and healthy, congratulations on being a new parent. But she needs a full medical exam, rabies, feline diseases, etc.

I am prety sure this cat has no chip. I live in a rural town where such thing is unheard of. This cat may be from a neighbor so I think I will keep an eye on her for a while, the owner may show up. I hope she or he will still be here by the morning.

I was going to write "obey your fate, accept her".  You had been Chosen.  By the cat, by fate, by God - choose yourself.

So i did I read on, and forgive me to writing it in clear, I got myself a healthy laugh "ROFL" reading he already sleeps  in your bed, all three together.   See!

I agree with BlackCats advices - check him out if he is healthy, no fleas or similiar.   If your Miss Piggy is healthy and used to go outside, you dont need to overdo the quarantine, but it is still wise to be careful.        And seek if there ARE owners.

In the time, let him live with you.  Perhaps in his own room, somewhat isolated, but inside.  You dont want to lose this dear now, when you decided to help it.

Good luck!

Wow, the stray cat is sleeping in the bed peacefully with you and your resident cat after 2 days? Have you named the cat yet? If she's sleeping in your bed and you've named her, then congratulations on having a new pet cat to love, lol.

I hope you will decide to keep her. If she has an owner, this person hasn't been taking very good care of her or she wouldn't be wandering around your house, hungry.

I am loving this thread. Bold managed to find himself a home, a bed, and a china bowl in 2 days, lol. To be honest, my outdoor feral, Muffin, eats from a good quality human bowl too. Send us a pic when you can.

Alright there is a picture of Bold Face while taking the sun in my yard.


Its really cold out there so I don't blame him. I really want a picture of both of them but it seems impossible right now. Still getting used to each other. 

After I checked him again I notice he has more wounds than I Initially though. Definitively tomorrow he are heading to the vet.

The fact that Miss Piggy has accepted him so readily makes me think he belongs with you.


Please do keep us posted!

I am really sad ;( Bold's owner turned on. A lady that lives nearby claim to be the owner I am not completely sure though. She took my boy away. Bold managed to get back twice today but she took him again. Now I am sure he is locked. Miss Piggy is sad too they were sharing the same bowl today.

She probably is the owner if she came looking for him. .. That is sad for you.

Unfortunately we can't take someone else's cat if they don't want us to.

I imagine she will stop locking him in and he may come back and be your 'visiting cat friend'.  It's best not to feed him, though, now you know he has an owner - it will confuse poor Bold and make the neighbour angry.
