[Baby Blessing]

We have a cat that started coming and pouncing up onto our front entry door just this week, in the wee hours of the night. We have never had a cat and don't know the first thing about them. It kept huddling up by our door tonight. It is so cold out so I just went out and put a box with bedding in it on the front porch, I put some of Baby Blessings dry dog food out for it and it ate it up in a hurry. This is the first time for me to feed it, hope giving it dry dog food is okay????? but I don't want to encourage it to stay, however, I feel so sorry for it, and it seemed so content to get into the box. Golly we are wanting another little yorkie not a cat.
