They must face the challenges of crossing highways, and struggling for food and water. Most of these wondering felines where abandon by there owners. They are scared that they will find another nice home and be thrown to the streets again. So if you take in a cat from the outdoors you've help that cat both mentally and physically the cat may be shy at first so don't worry if the cat runs every time it sees you.
