    I feed a neighborhood stray (that I am trying and failing to win trust with) but I work chaotic hours. Every time I have a busy week kitty gets bitter and won’t show up for a while.

      Curious what country you live in and how you know it’s a stray. I know some countries only have strays but if you’re not in one of those then how do you know you’re not just feeding someone else’s cat?

        I’ve been seeing it around since it was a kitten last spring. It has a notched ear which they do to strays when they are spade or neutered

        Not OP, but usually you can tell if a cat is regularly let into a house, or at least you can tell if they aren’t. If they look like they are clean enough to let into your house they’re probably someone else’s cat.
