    Lovely Gray Cat in need of a home

    The other day a lovely gray cat followed my neighbor home when she was out walking her dog. She cannot keep her because she knows she can't afford another animal and I'm at my limit.

    She's all gray with gorgeous green eyes, has all her claws. Unfortunately I don't think she is spayed and I do think she might be pregnant. Because of that, we're afraid if we take her to the shelter they'll put her to sleep.

    We've been asking around if anyone has lost or wants the cat with no luck. I've called the Animal Resource Network and left a message but haven't heard back.

    She doesn't seem to mind dogs. She growled and hissed a few times at Caly and Kia, but didn't scratch. She growled at Heela's two cats too, but did nothing more than that. Heela's cats ignored the gray.

    Here's some pictures:

    She is gorgous. If I lived nearer (say the same country), I would be down in a flash.

    Hoping you find her a furever home asap.

    What does the vet say about her ?

    Haven't had a chance to take her to the vet unfortunately. I'm hoping to take her in on Saturday.

    Doesn't she have the look of russianblue's Natika ?

    Fingers crossed at the vets.

    I was thinking russian blue too, but after talking to Moosmom I agree with her and I think she's a Korat or at least a Korat mix.

    Hopefully that'll help her chances at finding a home.

    (Watch... I'll post at the same time as Moosmom. )

    Oh my! If I only lived closer! I think she looks like a cross between Russian Blue's Nakita and my Hayley. Absolutely Beautiful!!

    She's magnificent! If I were nearby she might become #11. Best of luck finding a home for her.

    From what I can gather from her pictures, I'd say she is a Russian Blue, mostly because of her emerald green eyes, the angle of her ears, and the shape of her head. Korats do not have green eyes.

    Ramanth, I would definitely take her in if I lived closer, or perhaps better stated; if there was a way to get her down here, she would definitely have a new home.

    Wayne,

    I've compared two links with pictures of both the Russian Blue and the Korat.

    She does look like a Russian Blue. But, I had a Korat and their eyes DO turn green at about 3 years of age.

    That's great. Hopefully the cat escaped by accident (I've had that happen.)

    She's very pretty...

    She looks, from the photos at least, like she's been looked-after - nice, glossy coat etc. I hope you can find a home for her really soon, the poor darling!
