Zoey saw this cat on my patio and did this creep up mode thing.. When the cat turned its head Zoey would creep up more! Like she wanted to pounce it or something. The other cat was just non chalant.. licking itself, scratching.. and Zoey was just soo curious! No hissing though.



I crept onto the patio while it was on the fence. It didnt move until I made kissy sounds, then it took off.

Poor thing, it would make someone a nice companion pet with a little work.

*sigh* I know
I've seen this little one around here for over a year. He/she obviously must be getting fed by someone.

I thought it was weird that Zoey didnt freak out though. My parents cat ChiChi would have started hissing and meowing loud heh.

Yeah that's what I thought, some kind of siamese mix possibly. I knew it had to be a girl because she is so small.

there's a cat at my work that looks very similar to that...Her name is Millie and she's declawed
and an indoor/outdoor cat.

Very pretty kitty! Good for Zoey!

There's no place like home
You are lucky that they are getting along thru the window. I had a 10 year old unneutered male that did that at my apartment 11 years ago and he created quite a havoc in my household.

btw, we caught the stray, had him neutered and moved him out to my house in the country when we moved here. Rocky lived the country high-life for about 4 years before crossing the bridge.

Hey Sicy,

If Zoey didn't freak over that baby, then maybe getting a kitten will work out!

oh! Sicycat is thinking of getting a companion for Zoey!

Let me tell u Sicycat, if u do, u will be having a blast!

I grew up with only one cat for most of my life due to my father's refusing to have more than one cat (I always felt that was so unfair because HE had 2-3 dogs but REFUSED to have more than 1 cat!
)

When I moved into my own apt and got two cats-Sunniday and Zebra, they got along fine, Sunniday crossed the bridge a year later. I got Buddy and Spike to keep Zebra company and they got along GREAT then I got Pepper and now all FOUR ADORES each other as some of u might've seen from some pics I've posted!


Point is, Zoey probably will LOVE another companion to play with while u are gone at work or out..
I've noticed Zebra got more affectionate toward me AFTER I got Buddy and Spike. I think she saw Buddy and Spike being affectionate toward me and hmm learned from them.. The same thing might happen faster with Zoey if u get another cat.


I think it's great that u are taking ur time to think this through and not rush into anything though. As we all know, adopting another cat is a big committment.
If u have any questions about having multiple cats, well u know where to go to ask!


Hey, curious, I agree with PurrfectCatlove-
How you know somebody is feeding her ??? Just kinda wonder
How can u tell someone is feeding her? Also, she might come to u after a while if u leave food and water out for her, etc. It took me about 3 months to get a feral cat to let me near her then she became very affectionate! I am still looking for a good home for her..


Keep us posted about the stray and Zoey and ur decision...

Yeah I have a thread in the lounge about getting a kitten.

Well, how can this stray have survived for over a year around here if no one is feeding her?

It's very possible that she's surviving on her own by eating birds, mouses, etc.. U never know.

I got another pic of the cutie. Dont yell at me but I put a few pieces of food out so I could try to get near her to look at her condition. I actually got like 2 feet away!!
She's so cute. Her eyes are BRIGHT blue, clear and no signs of infection. Her coat is ok, not the best but in pretty good condition.
