Fun stuff happens to my family.
We were on our way out the door to leave for choir, when this strange sound emitted from the shrubs.
The first thought that went through everybody's mind was 'Pft, it's Max.' Max is our neighbor's cat, and he loves to hide in our bushes and chase the spiders on our porch.
But Max doesn't keep meowing like this cat did.
A couple minutes of persuasion found us with a black-and-white adult cat, about 4 or 5 years old, with beautiful green eyes and ribs and hips showing through his fur.

The cat ate a full dish of food in under a minute. We doubt he's feral - He hasn't been declawed or neutered, but he's very friendly towards people and comes when called (to ''kitty'', a mouse-like noise we use for our other cats, and if he's looking your way, just to a turn of the finger). We brought him in the house so we could watch him while we called the shelter, and he didn't act like he hadn't lived in a house before - he tended to stay around the kitchen, which we soon realized meant he was asking for scraps, as he runs around and through your legs and meows at the sound of bags opening or a skillet frying. He also showed submission to the cats of our house rather quickly, which was awfully interesting to watch (it's all body language, the way cats communicate).
He's a very sweet kitty - loves to be held and loves to sit on laps. ^^
So if there isn't a call in for him after a while, we may just keep him.
Which will be awesome, considering we lost a cat last year to lung cancer.
