What is it about owning cats which makes us a stray cat magnet ?
Having the same thoughts myself - if you figure it out let me know!!!

I think that TNR would be an option, especially if you are prepared to feed him, although bear in mind that you may be drawn into vet costs etc in the future (for example, if you TNR him, and feed him, and he gets hurt in a fight etc, you will NOT be able to stand by and let him suffer).

Re-homing would be first prize, although I would worry about:
1. him having to compete with cutsey kittens
2. other people labeling him as vicious - has he bitten or scratched anyone? The reason I ask is that I have had strays which I have "connected" with and even been able to pick up - but if anyone else wnet near them they went manic, and I would NEVER let my kids anywhere near them.

Good luck in whatever decision you make - I am sure you will weigh up all the options and do whatever is best for Mr Stray!

Thanks for caring!
