Can you go back and take a little bowl of food and water? She might still be there. Is there a pet-free friend or neighbor who might be willing to keep her so you can get her checked out at the vet? (Assuming you want to take on this much responsibility). Once she's fixed up and has a clean bill of health, she will be much easier to adopt. From the way she was behaving, it doesn't sound like she's feral. Probably just abandoned or neglected. She might be your first rescue for your new website!
If you do go back, take some handywipes or some soap to clean your hands thoroughly before touching Miss Luna or Lily. That's what I do when I get home from the shelter. So far (3 months and counting) my kitties haven't caught any of the germs from the shelter.
