This Reddit User Is Worried That The Stray Cat She's Been Feeding Might Go Back To The Wrong Family

We've all experienced it when a stray animal comes over to your house and begs for food, and there's no way you're going to let that poor animal leave without being fed.

You'd love to adopt every single animal that comes by your house but that's unfortunately not possible for everyone since it takes a lot of time and money to take care of your pet.

While it's hard to resist feeding the poor animals that show up at your door begging for food, it's important to remember that these animals might not be stray animals and they might have a home where they're being fed the appropriate amount.

Cats especially are famous for doing this even though they've been properly fed by their owners, so if you keep feeding them they'll keep coming back every day for food which is unhealthy for the cat.

This Reddit user and her boyfriend have been leaving food outside every day for the outdoor cats in the neighborhood and everything was going well until one day a woman contacted them because she believes that one of the cats they've been feeding is her cat that she lost a long time ago.

OP explained that all this time there was a camera pointed at the spot where she's been feeding the cats and she would post pictures of the unfamiliar cats on a Facebook page for lost cats, which is how the lady found out about her cat.

After finding a video from a time before the lady lost her cat which has an identical cat to the one the lady inquired about, OP started thinking that this cat isn't hers and that she might end up taking back the wrong cat to her home.

She was concerned because this new cat might cause tons of issues in her home especially if she wasn't used to the other cats in her home or the children she had.

She also planned on putting up some posters with this cat, and below you can see why the people of Reddit didn't agree with what she was doing.
