I finally received an e-mail back. Apparantly my note took its sweet time getting to her inbox, but it finally made it!

The reply went as so:
I do not know where this email has been, but I only received it yesterday. I know several of the individuals who own and work at the Front Page Restaurant and so I called one of them. He told me the cat is no longer hanging out there, but said he would call if it showed back up.

I am sure the cat found its way into someone's heart and has found a home from someone... Jonesboro has quite a few animal-lovers there. Best of luck to the cat wherever s/he is!
