Actually, I didn't do well at the start of this, but picked up towards to end AND made friends with some of my neighbors so it was a great experience.
Off and on for the last two hours a cat's been howling and once I'd checked that Livvy and Cassy were safe, I just figured that it's spring and mentally berated neighors who don't spay/neuter and let their babies roam free. About a half an hour ago my door bell rang. A neighbor I've been on 'waving at' only terms was at my door SURE that one of my cats was lost. I convinced him mine were okay, but realized (FINALLY) that a cat was in trouble. The neighbor is severely allergic to animals and was afraid to approach the little guy who was haunting his front entryway. I ran out in my socks! If my mother knew she'd've killed me. Thank heavens for small mercies. Living alone can be a major blessing sometimes.
You should've seen him. He's Persian (or a Persian mix) with the sweetest blue-gray pelt and brillant copper eyes. For all his size he was quite light: maybe 8 or 9 pounds (4 kg or so?) tops. The poor guy was frantic but still the gentlest fur-baby! Fortunately I was 90+% sure of the condo he belongs to -- in coloring and size he was a ringer for my (RB) Sassy and his 'mommy' and I had discussed/ compared them previously. He'd gotten almost to the right place but was one building off. When I brought him home, she was dumb-founded. She'd come home early with a migraine and hadn't realized he'd slipped out!
His name is Moody Blue and he's a sweet-heart. Except for me calling him 'sweet little girl' and 'pretty girl' when I was coaxing him to me and calming him between buildings
Have a great weekend everybody!
