Dudley, welcome to Pet Talk
I would not normally recommend feeding/taking in someone else's cat but IMO anyone who keeps their cat in the garage/outside with no access to the inside, does not deserve to own a pet.
I would try and decide whether you will keep Scooby forever or if you want to rehome him.
Either way, I would tell his offical owner that you'll be keeping him/rehoming him, it is only fair to be upfront. It doesn't sound like she actually wanted him.
Any idea how she came to have Scooby ?
PS. Just because Dudley didn't get on with his sister doesn't mean he wants to be a single cat all his life.
PPS. When you emigrate, Dudley and Scooby can share a travelling cage, two can travel as cheaply as one, so don't worry about that cost.

EDIT I just reread your post, she has got two cats in the garage. In that case if you intend on keeping Scooby, could you ask for the other cat too and get her rehomed. I don't like the idea on one shy cat on her own in the garage
Or if you want to rehome Scooter, again you could rehome them both.
Do you need a list of local no-kill shelters ?
