A stray cat has grown rather fond of me. For the past three days it literally hasn't left my patio. It was pouring rain out, and I felt bad for it because it was cold, wet, and most likely hungry so I have it a box with a towel in it to sleep in and some cat food. When I feed it it tries to get into the house, however I'm reluctant to do so because I already have a cat, and I was wondering:
If I pet the stray, can any diseases transfer to my cat?
My cat likes to sit at the screen door- where the stray cat is (and rubs on), is there a possibility fleas or diseases can do anything to my cat?
Would the stray even have these things?
Is there anything else I can do for the stray to make it more comfortable until I can adopt it out or send it to the SPCA?
