1892.0. "Is this your cat?" by BRUTUS::BARR (If you worry, your face will frown) Wed Oct 19 1988 11:45

    Last night when I returned home from work, I was greeted at my front
    door by the prettiest feline.  I'm not sure if it was a male or
    female.  It was gray (almost black) and light copper with white
    bib, mittens and boots.  It also had green eyes.  It appeared to
    be an older cat and it had definitely been well taken care of (didn't
    appear to be hungry).  I asked all the neighbors if they new who owned 
    this cat, but none of them did.
    
    I live in the Elm St. area of Fitchburg (near Burbank Hospital).
    If anyone has lost a cat in that area (or know anyone who has), that 
    fits that description, call me at home tonight and I'll let you know 
    if it's still there (it was there this morning).

1892.1Not AlfieRAINBW::PERRYCats make the best accessoriesWed Oct 19 1988 13:4526
    Nope. Doesn't sound like my baby.
    
    Alf is REALLY black with the white bib and paws, and that striking
    line down his nose.
    
    He is rather small and his eyes sometime seem too big for his head.
    
    He is ALWAYS jiggling his tail, but he hasn't quite figured out
    how to mark yet (thank God).
    
    He has a siamese-like cry and purrs like a motorboat.
    
    Though he genuinely likes people, he doesn't like to be held unless
    it's his idea.
    
    We are closer to Sterling than Fitchburg, so please Sterling noters
    keep your eyes open for him (Fitchburg too).
    
    
    I hope someone claims your kitty soon.

1892.2UpdateBRUTUS::BARRI'm not overweight, I'm undertallMon Dec 12 1988 18:4613
    Just wanted to say that this cat is still hanging around.  Sometimes
    I see it everyday for a week and sometimes two weeks will go by
    and I don't see it.  It's been around everyday now for about two
    weeks.  I don't want to let it in my apartment because I don't know 
    whether or not it has leukemia and I'd feel just awful if it were to
    infect my cat.
    
    It's gotten real cold out there and I'd hate to see the poor thing
    freeze to death, but I just don't know what to do.  Someone must
    be feeding it, because it still looks pretty healthy and not at
    all undernourished.
    
    If anyone has any suggestions as to what to do, let me know.
