Re: Luring a cat home

Keeping your cat indoors at night would be a good start.   You would need
to 
confine your cat indoors for a week or more so that it gets the message 
where its home is.   A collar with your phone number so that it does not
get 
fed by the neighbours (I have heard of a cat being fed by three households

each believing that they were the cats owners).
And de*** your cat.   Roaming cats, along with misplaced strays and the
one 
that go feral create a pest and are a nuisance
to the neighbourhood.
