John is cleaning out and doing minor renovations on one of his apartment
rental units. Long story short, the people he evicted left their black cat!
He spotted it when he went over about a week after they left, hanging out on
the upstairs deck. It let him pet it (he's not sure if it's a girl or a
fixed boy) but then it got freaked out and tried to bite him. So John
forgot about the cat and went about the business of cleaning up the mess
they'd left.
He said the cat had still been hanging around, but mostly hanging back while
he did his work. But yesterday he felt so sorry for it when it was on the
deck again he went and bought a bag of cheap food and put some out on the
deck (water, too). He said the cat walked over, sniffed the food, then ran
over to him and started rubbing all over his legs. THEN it ran back to the
food and ate like there is no tomorrow! I said, "AWWWWW! Kitty said 'Thank
You' first!" :)
He's going to try to rehome the kitty. Meanwhile, he'll make sure it has
food and fresh water.

I'm so glad John is caring for the cat, I don't think it's at all unusual
for them to bite when they're nervous.

That's a great story, although I'm sad for the little kitty. I'm glad that
John is taking care of him/her until he can find it a new home.

What a nice polite cat. Black cats are great. I hope someone can give
him/her a home.

Shadow is certainly great, he's really been transformed in the last two
weeks, much more relaxed. He keeps showing his tummy, I think very soon I
won't be able to resist giving it a tickle.

You may be right, I think I can spare a little blood.
