Cat Owners..Need help

Sort off. People who own a cat or like cats what do you do when you have or find a stray?
I am not 100% sure it's a stray it has a collar of course, but it's not a tag or flea collar. Just a regular collar with design on it. Yes I did feed it twice 1st time I saw it and today. We have a lot of strays both cats and dog where I lived so sometimes I would see it around. 
Taking it in I can't since I am still at home, and the other person either hate cats or claim they are allergic which isn't true. I don't want to call a shelter too quick since it may be someone's cat and most euthanize them especially since it's a black cat.  Posters maybe,can I just make then without a picture? How can I tell if it is a stray or someone's cat that they're too lazy to look for or got lost? Now poor kitty is sitting on the front porch, and it always wants me to pet it. There are a lot of cars out, we live on a busy road and some people/dogs who may harm it. I am worry a bit. What else can I do before I get too attach? (Too late)
Is it wrong for me to want to take off it's collar? I did loose it a bit. I just don't want poor cat to get caught on something. 
*No cat hate thread* It won't let me space my paragraphs.
