  For the past few weeks, a cat has been hanging around near my house. The poor thing has been living under an abandoned house next to mine. I saw her another time cuddled up next to a dog across the street. A few days ago, I walke doutside and she was sitting on the front steps meowing at me. She didn’t look like she was starving or anything, just like she wanted attention unlike all the skittish strays around here. I gave her some food and water, played with her some, put some sheets and rugs out on a chair and went to bed.

The next morning, she was still there, curled up in the sheets. she stuck around all day, and even came inside when I got home. she slept next to me for hours and slept in my bed all night.

I put an ad to re-home her up on craigslist and immediately got an email from a woman in my neighborhood saying someone was looking for a calico. She gave me her number, I called her and set up a time to meet her. I met her and handed the cat over. I didn’t want to, but I really can’t keep her. We’re planning on moving soon, and 3 cats looks like a lot.

K. Tonight I got a call from an excited girl named Kashonna. She was so excited that the cat, HER cat was alive, and was ready to have her back home. The cat’s name is Monet and she was VERY much missed. Here’s the kicker. The girl lives well over 15 miles away! i don’t know how she got that far so quickly. The girl said she disappeared about 3 weeks ago, which is when she showed up around here. The conspiracy theorist in me knows exactly how she got so far so quickly. The same way my cats that would never run away got so far away from my house. Yeah.

Anyway, I gave her the woman’s name and number and wished her well. I really do wish her well. I’d hate to lose such a sweet cute cat.
