Cat Almost Starving To Death

Location: Wyoming

We have had a lot of cats go missing recently. Today we heard a cat crying so we followed the noise and heard the cries coming from a neighbor's shed. We assumed a cat got trapped when they had it open at some point and they just didn't hear it. We tried knocking on their door but no one was home. So we opened the shed. And to our surprise, one of our cats was in a cage. Extremely skinny and dehydrated on the brink of death. We brought him back home and he is safe now.

My question is can we call the cops on our neighbors for animal abuse? Would we get into trouble for saving him since it was their property? We couldn't just leave him to die.

Edit: To clarify the cats are strays we take in and feed. I live in a very rural area. They come and go as they please. In this area, most people don't have indoor-only cats. We try to get as many as we can fixed. Other neighbors in the area also feed them and let them come in as they please. The neighbor in question is new and moved in a month or two ago. The cat we found in the cage has been in and out of our house for a couple of years now. He is named and has been to the vet.
