when my friend and i came back sat night from feeding my strays we stood on the street talking for a while and we heard a cat meowing. i went home and my friend, she lives 2 houses up from me, e-mailed m e and said the meow is coming from a garage but the students that live there have been gone since thurs. on spring break. i went out an hour later, abt 9pm and saw a skinny black kitten run under a car. i called it and it came right up. since it was in front of my friends house i got her out, we fed it, it ate 3 cans of food. it is skin and bones and had a wound on his back by it's tail and some missing hair. we took it to another friends house and it spent the last 2 nights in her garage in a warm box w/heating blanket. we took it to the vet today. it's about 8-9 mo. we're having it neutered, de-wormed, de-mited and a shot of antibiotics.
the students garage door is padlocked on one side but kinda loose on the other end. my friend and i took flashlights yesterday and lifted the side where the cat got out up and peeked inside. the door to the house is closed, no lights, no food and no water. and they're still not back.
we found somebody interested in adopting it. my friend and i are splitting the vet bill (214 dollars). we're going to let them think it escaped, which it did, and that it disappeared rather than see it starved again. you can feel every bone in his little body.
he's a little lover, loves to sit on my lap. i can't take him, already have 9 and my friends have all cats too. i figured it's easier to get him adopted if he's already fixed. i hope it all works out.
