For the past couple of months this pretty orange cat keeps hanging around my house. I find him sleeping on my porch and walking around the house in general. This morning, when I was walking out to my car, there he was meowing at me. So I talked him up for a few mins and he talked back, kind of approaching me but I could tell he wasn't ready to be petted. It was FREEZING this morning (low 20s) so I figured I'd get some cat food out and leave it on the porch for him. To my surprise, he followed me IN my house. For a split second I thought I'd lock him in the basement for the day but then he got spooked by my husky and ran back to the door (I let him back out). I brought him some food and left it out and he was eating when I left.
What am I going to do with this cat? He obviously likes something about my house as he keeps coming back. I really don't want another cat but I can't leave him out to freeze either. He doesn't look malnurished or anything....I wonder if he was the previous owners cat who just left him behind when she moved out...
