My mother acquired a ginger female in very similar circumstances, when I was about twelve or thirteen I think. The colleague who'd first found her had no trouble finding homes for the kittens, but people prepared to take in an adult were rather slower in forming an orderly queue.
The vet later suggested she might have been stolen (ginger females being apparently quite highly regarded by breeders), then run away.
