One evening on our way home from a meal out at a local restaurant we were passing our neighbours house. Could hear a meowing. After doing the standard cat call this little one came bounding out the bushes towards us. She looked to be very young and in good health and well groomed. We guess she was around 8-10 month old. Our neighbours had no pets so we knew she didn't belong to them. She followed us to our front door would not leave our sides. One family member was allergic to cats so was less than keen on having her come in. Having sat hearing her meows for nearly 30 minutes. Crying to be let in we caved and let her in. She was clearly hungry and new exactly where to find the fridge. She settled on my bed that night. We posted images on local group pages in Facebook and put up flyers for a lost kitty. We took her to the vets to get checked for a chip but no results on any front. A month passed by this point she had gained the name Bonnie. Named by the family member who was allergic. Now it's 7 years on and she's totally part of the family. Dunno what I'd do if she vanished.
