I must be wearing catnip underwear.


Ok, not really, but that's my boss' theory as to how/why cats seem to find me.
Take today, for example. Stopped by to feed my feral colony on the way back to work after an appt. and a very wet, hungy young male kitty (brown tabby) came running up to me telling me all his woes. I've actually seen this guy several times before and had been hoping to get ahold to get him fixed. The neighbors think he's another abandoned pet. He appears to have some kind of tail injury, so couldn't leave him. He's now in a fellow cat rescuer's garage and will go the vet first thing Friday morning and probably on to the rescue after that.

Before dropping him off, I stopped back at the office to let my boss know what happened and that I'd need the rest of the afternoon off. She's used to the cat stuff, so just shook her head, smiled and said, "catnip underwear."

Hey - you never know what just may become "all the rage"! Maybe you'll be starting a new trend setting style?

My theory is that cats can smell other cat pheromones on us cat owners. Anytime I've had any people in the house that also have cats, some of mine try to climb all over them.

Any update on the boy?
Yes, he had a quiet, comfortable night. He's a little scared, but loves attention and has eaten well. He's been named Asher (of Hebrew origin meaning happy, blessed or fortunate) since he was rescued on Ash Wed. His tail definitely looks limp and shows no sign of movement. He's going to the vet first thing tomorrow morning. If he's in any pain or needs surgery will have it done right away, otherwise we'll wait until the rescue's vet is able to do it next week. He's a little on the thin side, but no other apparent issues.

Please send vibes for his vet visit. He's such a sweetie.
