Here we go again . . . Bast, please stop!
I've said I'm not in a position to deal with rescues and strays anymore.
I lost my friend Therese over the last one I tried to help (although he did get a good home). So why do I have a sleek little black boy on my (still sinking) bed? I just fed him. That's all. Yeah, I know. grin But while I was feeding him, my next-door-neighbor yelled "Is that your cat?" "No," I said. "Well if I see it around here again, I'm gonna kill it." Okay. Inside we go, with the cat. Phone calls to the police and Humane Society give me no help, since the a**h*le hadn't actually done anything. But I am not about to leave this cat out with a threat like that being made. Just what I needed. So on my Trill and Merlyn vet trip, I took "Pinky" along. "Pinky" because he has a pink collar on. I get him tested so he does not have to be stuck in a carrier. He's fine, no feleuk or FIV. And he's neutered and declawed (hisssssssssss). The vet suggests he ran away from home because he was just *so* embarrassed they put a pink collar on him -- lol! While it's possible he was dumped, it's still more likely he got out somehow. He's an affectionate little thing, although he's definitely a hoolikitten, too. Vet figures he was born in the spring, or perhaps last winter. So he's not a year old yet. I'm guessing 6-7 months. So I've got a flyer up at the vet, a posting on petfbi.org, checking the lost and found ads, checking the neighbors. No luck so far. Since I had him tested, he's allowed to be near my beasts, although the one time I let him out of my room to see how that went, he was pretty much surrounded by hissing cats. Poor little guy. Bast, you gotta stop sending them to me!

Bast, you gotta stop sending them to me! Pics of the little guy: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sabracat/ Ginger-lyn I don't think I've ever seen such a *shiny* black kitty before. He hasn't been outside long; he looks very healthy. I won't comment on the declawing; it just raises my blood pressure dangerously.... Perhaps you will find his humans before you get too attached to the adorable fellow. Most likely, he got into the great OUT somehow, and just got lost. I hope his humans are working as hard to find him, as you are to find them! He's lucky he found a real cat lover, to look after him. But then, it seems like cats seem to be able to do that, quite well..... Best of luck finding his humans. ~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Life without cats would be only marginally worth living." -TC, and the unmercifully, relentlessly, sweet calico kitty, Kenzie.

Oh I know what you mean. I have my 9 and the neighbourhood tom enjoys
sitting right next to their enclosure watching them. I think cats just attract more cats. So much for them being loners. I truely hope that pink collared kitty gets re-united with his humans and that they are nice people. He is beautiful. Dewi |

Pics of the little guy: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sabracat/ OMG he's adorable, SO like my beloved RB Aries!!! I'd arrange purrs for his loving owners to show up but they've gone to the litterbox-offering corner for the declawing. So may I have the boys purr instead for this lovely chap to find a better home with you or a pal?
