Most strays that hang around for awhile have been abandoned or are not
taken care of properly. My rule is that if the cat is not neutered then
all bets are off as to prior owners and the cat becomes mine. Be happy
that the cat and the kitten were adopted together, and work on finding
other strays homes.

One thing I would recommend is if you have a stray that is socialized
and will let you near them, don't leave them outside until you decide
what to do. Take them to a vet for FIV/Felv testing, neutering and
vaccinations then keep them safe indoors.This way they will be out of
harm's way and you will know exactly where they are while you decide
whether to keep them or rehome them.

"Concerning all acts of initiative (and creation), there is one
elementary truth the ignorance of which kills countless ideas and
splendid plans: that the moment one definitely commits oneself, then
providence moves too. A whole stream of events issues from the decision,
raising in one's favor all manner of unforeseen incidents, meetings and
material assistance, which no man could have dreamt would have come his
way."

- W.H. Murray
