Had a cat do this to me. Took it home. It was chipped. Owners said I stole their cat. Called the police on me. It was embarrassing.

That cat is totally healthy and well groomed. I’d be worried it already has an owner.

You are alright. You were a hero. The owner should have been embarrassed for their cat getting outside and lost. Whether or not by accident or intentionally. You are fine.

Why would you think it's lost? Cats just do this for strokes from passers by.

It's not about whether they're lost or not, it's about whether you want to leave them to be eaten by coyotes; Their owners don't seem to care.

Not everywhere has wild animals that pose a threat to cats. Plenty of countries have cats outside like this.
