I'd take the cat to the vet and have it scanned on the off chance that it is microchipped. Then, take a good photo of the cat and make up a flier and post it around the neighborhood. Ask kids because they always seem to know the pets. Fill out a Found Cat form at your local shelter/pound. You could even put an ad in the newspaper for a few days. Then,if there are no responses, it looks like you've got yourself a cat.
Kuhio was taken to the pound by a well-intentioned neighbor and she was put to sleep before we could rescue her. Now, all our babies are microchipped.
Cammie was adopted after she was found wandering. She has obviously been well loved and taken care of in her 13+ years. I wish there was some way to let her former parents know that she is living a wonderful life now.
I wouldn't wish the "not knowing" on anyone. That's why I think you should do whatever possible to reunite her with her family.
When a stray walked into my sister's house, she put a collar on him and taped a piece of paper to it with her phone number. He came back the next day and the paper was missing. So, she taped another piece of paper on it. He came back again with no paper and no collar. No one ever called so "Seymour" now lives with my sister.
