Hello all,
I am the happy companion of 5 cats, 4 female and 1 male. Over the last couple of months a female stray cat has come to visit about 3 -4 times a week for food.
I would like to adopt her however I cannot be 100% sure she is a stray. She is skinny (but not emaciated) and her coat is quite matted with fleas etc. She doesnt particularly look like she has someone that looks after her. The thing that makes me wonder whether she really is a stray is because she is so approachable and friendly. What if she has an owner (granted one that doesnt look after her very well) - if I took her in would I be stealing? (sorry for the silly question).
Second question is if I did take her in does anyone have any advice on how I would introduce her to a multi-cat household? My tom cat really does not like her and goes absoluetly nuts whenever he sees her through the window.
I hope this post isnt too long
Thanks
T.
