Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / December 2005Just saw the prettiest cat!
... wandering around in the parking lot of the apartment complex. No collar, no tag (grrrrr). Not a stray or feral; he/she came right up to me when I said, "Oh look at you!" and gave my hand a rub. The cat had extremely long fur, tan-orange and white spots with a tan-orange tail. You know how when a cat is scared or angry their tails puff way up? I'd had to see this cat in that state; already had a HUGE tail. So pretty. I hope it stays safe out there. This is a busy corner.

MLB I think Persia would have a fit! Remember how she reacted to that bothersome cat across the street? Joyce I don't know. Some cats detest some cats but love others. They are very like us. > > Why not invite it in for a snack? MLB > > I think Persia would have a fit! Remember how she reacted to that > bothersome cat across the street? > > Joyce >I don't know.

I feel like there is a kind of weird deja-vu thing happening here.

Here Snowball is acting towards young Claudius just as huffily - and biffily - as Pericles used to act towards him as a kitten. Learned behaviour. Dear Bandit is just as kind and paternal as he's always been, and I thank my lucky stars for that. Purrs Gordon & the FF > > Why not invite it in for a snack? MLB > > I think Persia would have a fit!

Persia is on prescription food. Anyway, this cat was too well-fed looking to need to eat at Jill's. Jill > > > Why not invite it in for a snack? MLB > > > > I think Persia would have a fit!

He would come onto our balcony from his. Nocturne loved him, and would rub up against the glass, purring and purring. But we were afraid to let him in... ...and just as well, because each time new cats have actually ENTERED Nocturne's Territory, she's thrown an absolute fit. (Granted, she learned to love the kittens once she realized they were small and submissive, but Smokey...she cries when he's at the vet's, she must miss him, but when he's around, she makes it very clear how much she hates it when he's too close to her.) --Fil > If there is such a thing as an ugly cat, we had one in the apartment > next door in our old place.

Maybe she has borderline personality disorder? :) You know, "I Hate You, Don't Leave Me!" :) :) Joyce >> > > Why not invite it in for a snack?

You could put a slip of a yarn "collar" around her neck with a note on it and say you saw her almost get hit by a car or something and that might persuade her owner to keep her indoors. She sounds like someone cares about her...she is well-fed and friendly...you wouldn't have to say who you were. -PatM > You could put a slip of a yarn "collar" around her neck with a note on > it and say you saw her almost get hit by a car ... > > -PatM i think you can get more creative than that.. hit by a car? heh, buncha retneck tailbones would probably laugh and say... "I wish it would get hit by a car"...they don't care. how bout... shame on you! this poor cat is lost and hungry looking for it's home! I'm taking this cat the very next time I see it! signed Jesus > I hope it stays safe out there.
