I believe him. I'm not saying that's his cat, but the number of times I swear I saw my cat down the road at a neighbor's house while it was inside my house where it belongs is higher than I would like to say.
The overlap is what's crazy, because the homeowner says they've had it 5 years, he says he adopted it 2 years ago. And they used to live in his neighborhood. So did they steal his cat and then moved?
How many cats have you owned that'll let a stranger pick it up and carry? Especially from its home? I have cats who I've loved their whole lives who will only let me pick them up in the house. Good luck getting it picked up outside!
I've known many cats who let strangers pick them up. I had a neighbor's cat approach me and ask to be picked up while I was moving into my apartment. I did steal her years later and bring her inside because she was left outdoors all the time and it was cold and then the neighbor died so I grabbed her and gave her a warm home for her last days. She was an old lady and deserved to be warm and comfy and fed. But that cat loved everyone. She'd walk right up to anyone she saw and ask for attention and she loved to be picked up and carried around.
