Abandoned Cat

In my last post I mentioned some updates… I added Girlichef after visiting her site the other day. In addition to the recipes I enjoyed her post about the Mean People Suck bumper sticker. I remember seeing those. And you know, first hand experience about mean people landed on our doorstep several days ago. Here he is:



Whether you like cats or not – one of the most despicable things you can do (in my opinion) is abandon an animal to fend for itself. This guy appears to have been abandoned. He showed up, very hungry, and desperately wanting to be invited into the house. Our cat put up with him. But he can't come inside because our shibas are prey driven creatures and the poor guy wouldn't stand a chance.



He's gentle and I had originally thought he was declawed - but after capturing this guy and hauling him to the vet to see if he had a microchip implanted (he didn't) I asked if he was in fact declawed both front and back. He isn't declawed at all. He's just very gentle and allowed me to lift him and wrestle him into a cat carrier without drawing a drop of blood. Hell, my own cat would stick a toenail in me to keep from being put in the kennel!

So, the local county humane society worked with me and thankfully - they have found a home for him! He'll be picked up tomorrow and have a forever home where he'll be inside, fed and loved. Perfect.
