Stray Cat

[JustAMaleThatLovesCats]

So I found this cat,I'm pretty sure it's a stray,because she/he is very friendly,allows me to pick her up and put her/him in my lap; and my neighbours told me they saw a missing cat poster,but I didn't see any. I feed him/her every day.I don't know what gender or how old is he/she.My first question would be:What breed does it look like,next: How old could she/be and 3.rd Should I feed her dry or wet food???

That looks like a half-grown kitten.

If you hold up the tail and post a rear view photo, we may be able to sex the kitten for you.

The kitten needs 24/7 access to dry kitten chow, and several wet food meals per day (3-4). Fresh water also and a litter box too.

Kitten looks very sweet!

Will you be keeping it?

Thank you for rescuing it!

I would take the cat to the vet to see if it has a micro chip. If someone is looking for the kitty, maybe he/she is micro chipped. You also could put up fliers around that say "Found Kitty" with a picture. Yet be sure that the true owner comes forward and gives key identity markers for the cats. You don't want someone looking for a free cat that would want the cat for negative reasons ( ie using them as food/bait).

Thank you for trying to help this kitty. It definitely is not a feral kitty.

If you keep the cat, it will need some vet care. The first step is to be sure the kitty is spayed/neutered. Also you want vaccines and tests for kitty diseases.

excuse me, shadow. how does one use a kitty for food or bait?

People use cats in dog fighting or as food for some snakes. They often look for people giving away cats.
