Hi Rob,



The very best thing would be to take this cat to a vet, have him tested for feline leukemia and FIV, and have him neutered if he is intact. Then you can either let him continue to live outside or take him in. He might not want to be an indoor kitty after being outside for so long.



A shelter would most likely put him to sleep so I wouldn't take him to one. It would be better for him to live his life outside.



If your finances are limited, you can look into low cost spay/neuter clinics in your area. Your local shelter might be able to refer you somewhere if they don't do surgeries there.



Thanks for being willing to help this kitty. Because he is so friendly chances are that someone dumped him or left him behind when they moved.



Regards,

PHKitkat
