If it was feral or a stray.

I too don't like it when people let their cats out either. I let Kylie out on occasion with close supervision and she doesn't leave my yard, and if she does start to get brave and wander a very sharp "KYLIE" sends her running for the door. As do cars or trucks driving by, the rumble of a semi, the honk of a horn, as she's rather shy outside, which is fine by me.
Kloe is only outside when she makes an escape so its usually by accident. But she has no sense when she gets out there b/c she isn't as shy as Kylie, she is a lunatic outside.
I'm so sorry Vela that you have had to go thru this. It is NOT your fault it is the owner's fault that they don't know where their cat is. But I know that doesn't make you feel any better.
