Abandoned cat?

Timothy from Sydenham

Does anyone in the Somerfield area know if this cat (see photos) belongs to a home? It looks like it's been through the wars – scarily thin, with what looks like an infected left eye. There is also a lot of puss in both eyes. It's right eye looks bloodshot, and the left ear and nose … View moreDoes anyone in the Somerfield area know if this cat (see photos) belongs to a home? It looks like it's been through the wars – scarily thin, with what looks like an infected left eye. There is also a lot of puss in both eyes. It's right eye looks bloodshot, and the left ear and nose both look very sore. S/he is very friendly. For the past few days I have been feeding it on McCombs St (Selwyn St end) and providing a little TLC, but I think it needs to be taken to a vet. Just curious as to whether s/he is homeless, abandoned, or perhaps has run away? Any help would be great, thanks.
