We recently got adopted by a cat, and we are almost certain it’s a neutered male. In my opinion, it’s obvious he was someone’s housecat. For example, we found him crying in our bushes, and he came right up to us. He answers to “kitty” from practically anyone. He is very needy, and loves to be pet. And really this makes it obvious— we have some small rock next to our pool house outside, and we discovered that he has adopted this as his “go” spot... much to our dismay. Recently, as he has grown more comfortable to us and our inside dogs(who hate him), he tries to sneak in our door. He’s been successful once. I feel so incredibly guilty because I feel he should be inside someone’s home. He is precious and sweet, but he cannot come into our house. I just can’t do another animal indoors at this time. Even if we worked out the logistics of it, we cannot give it the attention it craves. I’ve posted him on various sites, and no one has claimed him- it’s been two months at least.
We feed it and water it like it’s our own, and every night we give it tuna. We regularly de-flea/tick with meds from vet. I also got him a cat house to put on the back covered terrace, but he rarely (if ever) gets in it, and just waits to see me through the glass door. I am so worried about when the weather actually turns cold, and I’m not sure if he will be ok? What can I do to make him comfortable outside? I’ve never owned a cat before. We don’t mind keeping him, just not indoors.
