Hi peoples. I am in a dilemma, thought to ask before I do something stupid.
Where I live there are many stray cats roaming. There is one particular cat that is so friendly and cute, and the winter is coming. I know that unfortunately I cannot adopt another cat. I also heard, and I don't really know how much this is true, that once you bring a cat home, he cannot survive anymore when released back to the outside.
So, I don't know if I should leave the cat outside since I can't keep him forever, or bring home for just the winter and release back when the weather is good again. Of course I will try to find a permanent home for him while he is with me, but that's not easy given where I live, people rarely have pets.
I also have a cat at home, I think he will enjoy the company of a bro, would it be cruel to separate them once they bond? Ugh..
