First, make sure you know the difference between a stray and a feral cat. We have information that will help at alleycat.org/StrayOrFeral.
If the cat is a friendly stray cat, she may have wandered away from her indoor home. See our tips to reunite her at alleycat.org/community-cat-care/how-to-find-a-stray-cats-home/.
If the cat doesn’t have an indoor home, you may decide to foster and adopt her out. See our adoption resources at alleycat.org/AdoptionTips.
Keep in mind that even the friendliest stray cat can be at home outdoors and does not need to be placed in an indoor home. It is always a great option to have her humanely trapped, spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and returned to her outdoor home through Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR).
