Cat was dumped

as for the cat, he's adusted well to dogs, commotion, a few unrelated arguments and door slamming :)blushing:), doogs sniffing his rear, etc.. and seems like he's king of River's castle. Eitherway, isn't this illegal? Isn't there an animal right law or something? I feel bad for the cat but he's not exactly shy timid and hiding under things, he's fitting in pretty good with River's brood and mine that are over here.

It sounds as though the cat has been around other animals and possibly children for awhile.
When we got another kitten to replace one that we had to put down, our second cat took almost a month before it would stop hissing at it. It takes awhile for cats to get accustomed to other animals.

As for the law, I know there is a law against cruelty towards animals. The fact that whoever dumped the cat off called you to let you know and that food was left with the cat says that they weren't trying to be cruel to the animal. That, however still does not make what they did right.

They called nearly two hours after the fact and it was in a carrier and no water baking in the sun, no shade :frown:

Young female.....Dems thinks she is black, and I can't really tell for sure.
I cannot recognize her voice so I am wondering if cell phone numbers are available by address

There are websites that allow you to do a reverse lookup to determine an address that belongs to a specific telephone number. I'm sure they can go the other direction as well. In order to do this though, your number has to be listed in the phone book.

The fact that your cell phone information is not available to the general public indicates that the person that called you is someone that knows you or someone that you may have given your cell number to because of business.

If the person took 2 hours to call and tell you about the cat, it may have been a long distance call. You may be able to check with the phone company to determine what incoming calls you received on your cell phone. Even though the number was blocked from you, the phone company may have the information.

If you can't find a home, look to the rescues. They will get the kitty vetted and fixed.

Are you trying to allude to killing people or killing innocent cats?

Wow - that cat looks just like mine.


Yes he does but his markings are jagged not the smooth line going up and down a tux kitty, also he has an odd big grey patch under his chin like a full grown beard or something. :lol: If anyone wants him, he's more than happy to have him!! Please? :biggrin: He's litter box friendly,very sweet and friendly and can handle lots of commotion and other animals :smile: Not at all a cat or kitten that would prefer to hide under a bed or something, not even his first hour or two out of the carrier out and about. He's probably do great around kids too!!!

I'd love to have another cat and I'd adopt that little guy in a minute but I just don't like the thought of scooping more tiny turds. I've heard of people potty training their cats. That would be awesome.

If you had two bathrooms in your house you may be able. You will need to set one up just for the cat for a while.

I heard that you strech Saran wrap over the seat then put the ring down.
Then add a litter litter on the plastic wrap.
DON'T FLUSH THE PLASTIC WRAP!!!!
This will entice the kitty to use the toilet.
I never tried it. But sounds sensible enuff.

If I recall, there was a thread about this, but I am to lazy to search for it.
