Tis Is precisely how I got my cat, sort of.
I ran out of gas, so I was walking back along the highway, when out pops a lil guy about that size, bunch of scabs. So I carried him home in my shirt about 8km. He knew he was home, I know it because he knew where the food, water and toilet were, on his own within 5 min.
He still comes up every night to nuzzle. That's my cat-fren "squiddie" in my profile pic.
