Michelin went to the Vet this morning for The Works.
Animal Kind charges only $20 for exam, shots, and spay.
Miche will be coming home today at 3:30.
He won't be going outside again.
Miche is definitely not feral.
Mich was a house cat that some sick POS dumped.

Well good on you for recognizing that and acting to be an angel.

Any cat that likes toys that much is a home cat.

Good for you taking him in and getting him neutered, however...you don't
know that some "sick POS dumped" him. I have a good friend who loves cats
( a much loved house cat of hers escaped one day when she opened the front
door) She was half crazy looking for the cat, posted flyers etc., she
finally found the cat a couple of weeks later when someone called and told
her they thought it was under their porch, it was and they were reunited.
Definitely not a POS situation.

A fair point, kitties do get out and get lost.

Sheldon might want to advertise on social media locally that he has a
new stray in house.

As long as the owners weren't using him for paid stud service (the cat, not
Sheldon) :)

My mental health professional has directed me to apologize to this
group at large and to Marty and Steven in specific for acting out
here. A change in my medications is being made to address a disorder I
have been experiencing this summer. I will be monitored, but I am no
longer allowed to engage in certain activities I previously have
enjoyed as they exacerbate my condition. I apologize for being
disruptive, in a better state of mind this was generally not an issue
for me.

Thank you for taking care of Mish. I joked about him not having enough
toys in another thread. I think he's definitely an indoor cat. There
are feral cats on Dataw (tended to by a volunteer organization) but they
wouldn't have a clue what cat toys are for. Mish, Mich, whatever you
call him, it doesn't sound like he belongs outdoors.

Sometimes cats do escape, that's true. But, my cat Persia had been
dumped. Someone moved away and left her behind. She showed up at my
door because she wanted inside a nice warm place.

Sheldon lives so far out in the middle of nowhere, could it really be a
neighbors' cat? I know they can traverse afar but it's been coming
around to eat (and he posted a pic in another thread with cat toys) for
a while now. I'm sure the vet would have scanned for a chip, too.

Friendly cat, not afraid of toys or humans. Unfortunately, people
abandoning pets is an all too common occurrence.

Apparently people with acreage and a barn are often where people
think it's okay to drop off their unwanted cats.

I'm reminded of an episode from a TV show, The King of Queens. Ray
Romano brought home a "stray" bull dog. He had it neutered, then the
owner showed up. Turned out it was a stud champion bull dog. ;)

True, but...it doesn't necessarily follow that some POS dropped the cat at
Sheldon's, which was my only point. How do you know that someone dumped
Persia, I'm curious.

LOL, I saw something like that on Judge Judy too, someone had found a dog
and had it fixed, then it turned out to be a dog used for breeding, it also
turned out that the person that was suing had used that poor dog over and
over with not much time in between, so in that case it was a good thing. :)

I don't know for *sure* but I went to great lengths to find out who
might have lost her. I took pictures, posted flyers, called all the
area vets and shelters. Is anyone missing what looks like a Russian
Blue cat? (A trip to the vet showed she had been spayed and front
declawed, BTW.)

There was a a couple who lived in a duplex across the street from my
apartment complex. They had a lot of cats. I'd see the cats outside
all the time. The people picked up and moved but left the cats. I
suspect that's where Persia came from.

The manager at my apartment complex told me it was not at all uncommon
for people to leave pets behind. Sometimes they found them shut up
inside the empty apartments when they went in to get them ready to rent.
Left with a bowl of kibble and some water and nothing else. Who knows
how long those pets were shut inside. There are definitely some POS
people in the world when it comes to abandoning pets.

When my son was living in Montreal he was asked to look after someone's
cat for a couple weeks. He ended up doing it for a few months but was
having a hard time because of a severe allergy to cats. He got his
roommate to do it for a while. He ended up moving out of town and
doesn't know what came of the cat or how long that old roommate looked
after it.

Whether he was abandoned or not, you did the right thing by
having him spayed and his shots. He has probably been
living like a prince, now he can live like a king.

Then you have a pretty good reason for thinking that, lucky Persia that she
came to your door. :) Yes, there have been instances where an owner died and
the *family* dumped the animals instead of making arrangements for them,
they are true POS!

I'm sorry, what? If your son was allergic to cats he should have never
taken on that task. And if the owners cared they should have found
someone else.

And so... your son shuffled off the responsibility to his roommate who
took off and no one knows what happened to the cat? Wowsa.

I agree, but is it worse than slaughtering and eating animals?

I think so. It was very cold that night. It was January, supposed to
get down to 23F. She kept meowing outside. When she refused to leave I
drove to the store. Bought a cheap bag of cat food, a litterbox and
litter and a couple of pet food bowls. I told myself if she was still
there when I got home, I'd let her in. She was, and I did. She came
inside, marched around the place, looked things over and decided yes,
she was home. :)

There's that, too. I adopted Buffy after her owner died. It is
important to make sure someone will be taking care of your pets if
something should happen to you. Buffy was a bit hesitant here but
that's because she was bullied by another cat in her former household.
She's now the sweetest, snuggliest not shy cat ever. :)

Not really...what you are doing is being a hypocrite by posting a reply
to me via someone else's posting.

But hey, what else isn't new with you dear?

Your killfile is just a ruse, you read and pot shot all.

Ever see what cat allergies do to some folks?

Not a pretty sight.

As for the roomie, get real, 2 nice people got scammed by owners who
likely wanted to abandon their kitty.

I swear, you've blamed everyone but the perps.

I've been involved with enough house cats and feral cats to know the
differences. Miche is definately a house cat that could not have
survived here outdoors.
Anyway the Vet says he's about two years old, weighs 21 pounds, and is
in excellent health, and now Miche has a forever home. He loves toys
so I will be checking to buy him more. Meanwhile he is recuperating
in a back room and will be allowed out to roam about tomorrow morning.
I'm very glad that after being dumped he found his way to our deck.
People at Animal Kind said cats are dumped every day.
They only charged us $20 because we addopted him, had we left him as a
feral it would have been $70 and they would have notched his ear.
Animal Kind knew that we donate a lot of money so thanked us profusely
for giving Miche a forever home. The woman there said he's a lovely
cat and wished she could have kept him.

Kudos to Penfart for sheltering the stray cat. I have a cat that came
here almost 9 years ago.

I just hope he doesn't abuse the animal in some of his ritual sexual
fantasies. He is pretty sick and could get worse anytime.

No comparison and a stupid statement actually.

You're obviously not a sane person, but don't let that stop you from making
a fool of yourself on a regular basis...oh wait.

Miche is recovering well, he's eating up a storm. Tomorrow he will
get full run of the house.

Living organisms are being killed and eaten by other organisms at a staggering rate. The dominant motif here on planet Earth is killing or being killed, or eating or getting eaten. Humans will wipe that concept completely out of their minds and that's a good thing because the reality is certainly horrible and depressing.

The good news is that as a species, we don't kill all that much on this planet of killing and death. OTOH, as a species, we're the only ones that feel bad about killing being a natural fact of life. OTOH, the killing for food on Earth is unsustainable. The food of the future will be microorganisms and products of microorganisms. We'll still be killing for our foods but at least they won't have mournful eyes.

You're worried and caring about one animal and then you eat the other
animal. Talk about Dr Jekyll and Mrs Cheri.

That's up to you. Just don't worry too much about a cat here or a dog
there, because that's totally hypocritical.
