I dont know what to do??

Question

So at the start of march my cat didn't come home like he normally did so i was outside shaking at packet of treats for ages for him to come. Instead I attracted a grey tabby cat which seemed really small and skinny. It shadowed me at first and i gave it a treat seeing as i felt sorry for it. After that my cat came back and had a fight with it and the poor kitty ran away. I then realised that i shouldn't have done that seeing as it my cats territory and not that cats. Last month my cat went missing and it turned out he had gotten lost and then got hit by a car while trying to find his way home. Now that my cat no longer owned this territory that cat has decided to come back only this time it has a collar on. Firstly its a dog collar with no quick release and i thought about taking it off because i know it can be dangerous if a cat gets stuck. Secondly my friend lives on a road which is opposite to mine and she had a kitten that went missing last year that looks just like this cat. But we aren't sure because it has a collar. The cat keeps on trying to come in to my house and will cry outside for ages. I went outside and cuddled it a little but my dad told me off because we're due to get another kitten next week. What should i do? Should i take the collar off? We cant tell if it my friends cat because its not microchipped but what if it is? The cats outside right now curled up waiting to come in!! If it had a proper home would it still do this?

Cats choose to adopt anyone who will give them affection and food. He will go to and fromhis owner-they all do. Forget about him and enjoy your new kitten

Forget the kitten and bring this one in and take the damn collar off!  Unless it's microchipped there's no way to prove it belongs to someone else.  Keep it inside!

I'm sure your original cat didn't want to die!

WHY CATS SHOULD NOT BE OUTDOORS

1.	FIV and FeLV (FeLV kills in a year)  Vaccinations are NOT 100%.
2.	They fight with other cats (bites become abscesses and unless treated they die)
3.	Cats eat snail bait in yards and garden and die
4.	Cats eat rodents who have been poisoned and they die from the poison too
5.	Cats lick up antifreeze (sweet tasting) that drips from cars and die horrible deaths (no cure)
6.	Cats get killed by dogs, coyotes, and hawks.
7.	Cats go to the bathroom in other peoples yard and the neighbors call animal control to take cats away and kill them or neighbor traps them and dumps them in the country to die
8.	Teenagers, shoot, stab, and set fire to cats for fun
9.	Indoor cats don’t get lost or stolen (“Bunchers” grab cats to sell for medical research)
10.	Indoor cats live 15 – 18 years.  Indoor/Outdoor cats live approx.. 6 years.  Outdoor cats live 4 years.  There are always exceptions however these are the averages.
            Indoor cats don’t get run over.
11.	People grab kittens/cats to feed to their pythons & to use as bait in dog fighting rings.
12.      Very pretty cats will be stolen and kept just because someone wants it.
CATS  ARE  NOT  DISPOSABLE  ENTERTAINMENT!

The cat obviously has an owner. If you're concerned, find them and ask about the cat, instead of essentially stealing it

if it had a proper home it wouldn't do this. have pity take it in, or tell your friend about it to come check out the kitty
