I have recently spotted a black cat around the feeding area (we leave a bowl of cat food and a bowl of water out for the strays that roam our compound). He is extremely friendly and affectionate. He will let you pick him up, and hug him, and if you sit down he will climb into your lap and start cleaning himself and then doze off! When he sees our cats through the fly screen he runs off instead of approaching the fly screen and meowing very loudly like one of the other stray males does.
Is he lost? He's thin, infact he has gotten thinner since i last saw him last week and since last week he has lost a bit of fur on his left haunch. The skin under neath is dark and scaly. I'm just wondering what to do....?
We have 3 indoor cats of our own and my husband is not going to say yes to a fourth cat... I'm really wondering what the right thing to do is... There are other stray cats in the area, but the difference is that they seem to be doing quite well fending for themselves. This guy doesn't seem to be faring quite so well...
