ok until the receiver thing falls off or he loses his collar (ours is on his third)
Expensive, but if you do keep her and get her chipped, definitely the best option.

On the cost front, I would say the Wolf costs us about £120 a year. £100 is on his yearly jabs, £5 for a 5kg bag of kitty biscuits from Tesco every quarter, and any leftovers we care to give him and a bit of raw meat and fish every now and again. The good thing about him being a stray is that he's really not fussy when it comes to food.
I did invest in a microchip cat flat and a 90 day feeder early on, which means we can go on holiday for 10 days, stick a webcam on his feeder and keep an eye on him - he's happy as larry. We could never put him in a cattery - he'd hate the loss of independance.
Cheapest pet I've ever had.
