I got the call this morning from the stray's "owner", and I say that cause she sure isn't the cat's "mom". She said the last time she saw "meow" was last Friday, the same Friday we noticed her. She was a stray to her also, and had only had her two weeks when she got scared away by her neighbor's dog. Meow wasn't allowed in the house because of her claws....anyhow, I had to tell her that I hadn't seen Meow since Thursday night, as the dog I am babysitting scared her away too!!!!! I still put food out, and it looked like last night she ate some, but not like before. The lady said she stopped putting food out cause she thought she was 'gone'. HELLO? It hadn't even been a week yet! I have had the ad in since Wednesday!!! UGH. Not only that, but she said she couldn't come over to get her today because of her kids being sick. She only lives two streets away. I would of course take the cat over there...assuming she comes back to me. What a unhappy situation.
