went up to surfergirls house to let her dog out and i see cat food on a chair by her front porch. then a hear a meow, meow, i turn and see this white cat sitting on her window sill. he had no claws and beatuiful crystal blue eyes, he was very friendly. i set some water out for him and he kept meowing. so i leave and i see this man down the street and ask if he knows of a lost cat. nope but said there was a sign down the street for a lost cat. i called the lady and she live about a block away and it was her cat. he had been gone 3 days and she was in tears, she was sooooo happy!

I'll bet the cat never thought he was lost. In fact I'll bet the cat thinks humans are stupid. :-)

Perhaps that cat was just on vacation, and had intentions of returning soon. :)

I am a dog fan but I hear cats are nice....if you cook them in the oven long enough at the right temperature.

I'm glad you found him & returned him home - a declawed cat isn't safe outdoors.

Isn't it great to make a happy reunion like that? Good for you. :-)

You know when you finish cleaning and skinning an animal if you take a small propane torch and quickly wave it over the carcass all the hair will burn quickly and this will help greatly with the gamey taste. I prepair all my cats in this fashion.

Lyra, I have 4 black cats in need of a new home. 2 are part Angora, so their undercoats are pale grey.

I have a 20lb. calico any takers? I'll just tell the kids she must have ran out while I was unloading groceries or something.

Well Tarpy's allergic, so I can't have any kitties...unless I find him a new home. Mooohaha! What kind of idiot is allergic to cats, anyway?

You know I never really cared for hearts - livers, tounges or gizzards either for that matter. ;)

I hate cats.

Thanks lyra! I am deathly allergic to cats. I spent the night at a friends way back when I was in 7th grade and I forgot to ask if he had a cat. I woke up at about 2AM coughing and gasping for air. They had to take me to the hospital because I couldn't breathe.

Well maybe you'll learn your lesson, and not be allergic next time, WK!

Yeah, like you're going to find Tarpy a new home!

A suave cat like him?
