Neighbor Anna is looking for a permanent home for a young calico cat she found on her doorstep during a storm:

“Super-friendly, cuddly, and beautiful young calico kitty needs a home. She was lost during a storm and was found on our doorstep. After several days we took her inside because of her super-friendly behavior and had no luck finding her original owner. She is clean, healthy, litter trained, and does well with our other 2 older cats.

We had her tested (FeLV/FIV negative) and got all of her shots up-to-date. We also gave her flea treatment just in case. She is a young kitty, less than one year old, doctor says. We are out of room with 2 other cats in the house and looking for a loving home for this adorable kitty. She is a great addition to any house and she loves to be around people.”

If you would like to adopt this cat, please contact Anna at: milk_angel@hotmail.com, phone: (267) 348-4208. More photos are available here.

Update (06/04): Grady was found and returned to the owner (see comments below).

A former City Kitty, Grady, is missing. He is a gray tabby male, approximately two years old, neutered, and is wearing a collar. He is very friendly. He was last seen on May 31 near 48th and Warrington. If you see him please contact Shari immediately (sharibones[at]gmail.com, or 510-772-8102) or contact City Kitties. Since he is so friendly, feel free to take him in before you call.

Neighbor Tara is looking for a permanent home for her foster cat Lucky who has been living with her since last July. Lucky is a big kitty, around 16 lbs. He is an excellent mouser and spider killer, and he loves to play with the laser mouse and catnip fish. He wants company, not necessarily cuddling, but the same room is good. The same lap is better. A good scratch under his chin makes his day. He is quite a character and is very opinionated.

Lucky needs a very special owner. When he came to live with Tara he needed to learn that people wouldn’t hurt him. Sudden movements like reaching down to pet him on the head made him duck and cower. Anticipating being hit, he would come back fighting. For the first months Tara couldn’t pick him up. He would turn into an angry, yowling, hissing, critter. Now she can hold him on her shoulder and he purrs and gives kisses.

Lucky needs someone patient, kind but firm. He probably should not go into a house with other pets or young children. For the right person Lucky will be the perfect pet. He is about nine years old, has a recent rabies shot and is in good health. If you’re interested in adopting Lucky, please email Tara at: inkfishpress@mail.com
