UPDATED(found her again)--Skinny cat

I dont know if anyone remembers but a while ago(at the begining of summer) I found a cat that was extremly skinny, I was going to put food out for it but I never foudn it again.

Well yesterday I was walking to my freinds and the cat came running up to me. I immmediatly knew it was the same cat because it ran up to me before. And I started petting it and it had all its back bones sticking out and noticably skinny by looking at the tummyy. I picked it up this time to rbing it with me, I didnt care where I was going I just wanted to get it somewhere safe where I could bring it home later.

I picked up that cat and started walking away but then some guy was staring at me from his driveway and so I put the cat down. I was on the phone so I couldnt ask him anything.

I dont know what to do I want to rescue this cat soo bad its so skinny.

The dog groomers I work in there is a cat adoptions place above so maybe I'll ask her what to do.

Can you go back and see if the cat will come to you? I might have asked if it was his cat or if he knew to whom it belonged.

He might have just thought you were weird for picking up a skinny cat.

Maybe he is one of those idiots that thinks the poor kitty can catch it's own food......poor kitty!

He might have wondered what you were doing, and it may not have been his Cat at all.
Some people are nosy.
I know taht people will stare at me when I fill the Porchies Food Bowls.
I hope that you can get this Cat to safety.
Take some sample packs from the Pet Food Stores so you will have some food handy to let this Cat know that you care.

I would have hung up the phone and asked. A cat's life is much more important than a cell phone conversation :mad:

My freinds going through difficult times..and I was scared that it was the mans cat and he thought I was stealing it..its raining today I'll go tommorow to see if hes there again. I have sample cat foods cause last time I saw him I thought I would find him again.I really wish I would of just kept walking with it. At least if he dose live there then I know where to look for him. It was generally close to where I found him before and both times its been in the evening.

Just try again, and GOOD LUCK getting him / her ..... thank you for being concerned for this poor baby! ;)

I found her again!
She was in the same area.
I renamed her Melody, its nice to have a name.
And my grandma took her in to look after her, she owns Princess my cat(who I cant keep at my house)
Her dewclaw nail hes grown so much that its curled but not only that its curled into the pad and smells so I'm thinking its infected.
I have a couple pictures and will get more loaded later.

Melody is a beautiful girl! Looks like she is a talker too! :)

A vet can get that dewclaw fixed.

How wonderful that she can stay with your grandma! She will feel so much better as she gains weight!

I love the colours of her fur - like a fall day in Ontario!

Oh, I am so glad you found her again! She looks like a sweet girl. She is beautiful!!!

Bless your grandmother for taking her in. I love a 'chatty cat'!

Shes very talkative. And dosent stop purring lol!
But she was panting in those pictures.

Oh, I guess she was a bit scared if she was panting...but good to hear that she is talking and purring (and eating like a little piggy? :D )

HUGS to that beautiful girl!

Oh yes she gobbled down some food, Ive never seen a cat eat so fast.
She knew by the sound of the container shaking that there was food and got all excited.Then did a head dive into the dish lol.

What a beauty! Glad you got her.

Heres even more pictures that I uploaded

I really enjoyed taking pictures of her

Oh wow... what a beautiful kitty! Thank you, Grandma, for taking this beauty in and caring for her. Melody looks like a real sweetheart. Please let us know how things work out?

I love her snout - she reminds me of a lioness! :D And her whiskers are amazing!

What a special coloring she has!! That fur looks like gold with some black in it: absolutely stunning!!!!

Thanks. I think my grandma is a foster failure lol. Every other cat Ive rescued she says she will rbing to the shelter but ends up keeping it. Si fingers crossed that Melody will stay.
