Yes, that is what I was thinking also. After talking with some of the various rescue groups here, this situation fits the profile of an abandoned pet (due to the fact that the local shelters were not notified of the loss and no tags or collar - although it is possible for the collar to slip off).
I have heard that some people release their pets into the wild (or streets) when they no longer want them or can't take care of them ... they are not aware of the various rescue groups or they just don't care.
