Best advice would be to contact the local cat or animal welfare centre.
They are fully trained to take in strays and rehome them properly.



Shy or feral "strays" rarely see the adoption room. Institutional
shelters may keep the animal for a few days (depending on local laws) and
then euthanize. "No-Kill" shelters simply won't take them.

But some rescuers will take them home to be indoor ferals. It's quit the one
way street where the rescuer provides shelter, food, medical care, and a
long comfortable life free from want and harm, in exchange for hissing,
growling, aloofness, and a total lack of anything even vaugely resembling
gratitude.

Don't knock it till you've tried it.
