3264.0. "Looking for home for stray" by ARGUS::BOURGEOIS (INDEC F/S NPC) Fri Jan 19 1990 16:13


  My wife and I are trying to fond a home for a stray cat that
  has shown up on our doorstep recently.

   I am allergic to cats, and we also have a new 4month old baby,
  and a dog, so we are not interested in keeping this cat.

    It (haven't checked to see if its male or female) has been
   around for about onw week now.  We have brought it into the
   house for short intervals, and it acts like a cat that is
   used to being in the house.

    It made no messes at all, and spent most of the time curled up
    on one of the kitchen chairs.  We have been feeding it, so that it
    does not starve to death, but its meowing is driving us nuts.. 
    he/she wants to be let in really bad.

    The cat is black, with some minor hints of gray, and a small
    white spot on its chest.  There are no collars.  We live in Gardner
    and are checking with animal shelters and hospitals to try and find
    it a decent home.

     Any and all help from you feliners would be appreciated.

	Thanks,

    Hey, Bri!  How are you?
    
    You might want to also post this note in note #415, which is for
    adoptions.  You are so good to take care of a stray, especially in this
    weather.  I'd consider taking it, but we already have one, who is king
    of the roost.  I tried taking in a stray two years ago (tried and tried
    and TRIED with this animal) and it just did not work out.  He
    terrorized our existing cat unmercifully...
    
    Anyway, good luck, and nice "talking" to you in this file.

3264.2Shes at Richards kennels nowARGUS::BOURGEOISINDEC F/S NPCWed Jan 24 1990 19:2419
  Hi Deb,  I'm fine..

     Unfortunetly we were unable to keep the cat, so for now we
    have brought her to Richards Kennels in Leominster, as they do
    take in stray's.  We gladly paid the $15 dollar "donation" and
    also lef the almost full box of Purina Plus cat food we bought
    her (Who said I don't like cats..  don't say anything but it was
    kinda cute and would have been very easy to get attached to.)

     I needed to update this note to let people know where the cat is
    if they want it, but I am not sure how long Richards holds on
    to strays before putting them down.

      Please help me spread the word about her location.  


      Thanks
