Looks like a young cat. Would this be A domestic cat gone wild, or an Australian feral cat?

It looks like it is in pretty good condition so may be a recently dumped kitten, but second photo suggests a wariness so could be feral or stray (a stray still has some reliance on people e.g. it eats rubbish). Whatever it is, the life of a feral or stray cat is usually hard and short with several lethal diseases such as Cat aids and Cat flu to deal with.
