He's OK as long as I leave him alone. Called the family & NO ANSWER! Hope they can come over tonight to identify him. I won't be able to sleep a wink. If they don't think it's him I guess I'll be taking him to the Vet to see if he's chipped; if not, I hope Barb/Pet Lovers Rescue can take him. He's really a beautiful cat.  |
Great job KittyKat. You seem to care a lot more about what happens to this cat than the possible owners do! Keep us posted.
Your post brought back some memories to me -- maybe because that cat resembles my cat Torie. When Torie was a lot younger she accidentally got out. My Mom opened the patio door not knowing the screen wasn't closed! We were visiting our home in St. Augustine and Torie had never been there before. Worse yet, it happened on Christmas Eve and everything was closed. At 3 AM with flashlight in hand, I was wandering around all of the bushes in the complex and the beach! The neighbors probably thought I was crazy! I posted signs everywhere and left messages at the local vets and animal shelters. Three days later Torie showed up at our door. That in itself was amazing to me as she had never been there before and all of the condos look alike. Six years later, Torie is the "purr"fect cat and very friendly to anyone. But, she is still scared of loud noises.
Here is a picture of Torie now with her new little sister Kaylee!
