Look what followed me home. ;)

[jenluckenbach]

Well, actually, I had to carry him.

Someone brought him in to the grooming shop today, as a stray that she did not know what to do with.






Not only is he beautiful, he is friendly and not afraid of anything. (so far) He had a nail clip, a flea bath and is going to the vet....well, right now. He'll be tested and vaccinated and dewormed.

He is long haired and already neutered, so I bet he can find a new family quickly. Seems to be young, too.

I'll let you know how it goes at the vet.

I might call him Columbus. but I am not sure yet.

...awwwww....

He seems so tame...if he was already neutered, it makes me wonder if he has an owner looking for him.

He looks really sweet. I hope he gets a furrever home before he has to come to your house...he might stress the messy ones out even more!

I Was Thinking The Same Thing As Candance, That He Does Not Resemble A Stray To Me.
Especially If Hes Neutered Already And Is That Calm Around People. Its A Shame That He Has No Identification Because Someone May Be Looking For Colombus Now.
I Would Send The Shelters His Photo In Case Someones Looking For That Handsome One.

He is gorgeous! I bet he is lost!!!

[orangemm]

Poor boy! I wonder if he is lost? If he were mine, I would be frantic searching for him.

They always know where to find YOU!

[Taz_Zoee]

You are amazing!!! If I were a stray kitty, I'd definitely want to be in your neighborhood.
Sometimes I am thankful that I live with my BF, because I'd probably have a ton of animals. Yeah, I know, that's not a bad thing, but he won't let me.

[jenluckenbach]

Well, it is true he may have an owner. But cats aren't to be free roaming (around here) so, I'll just have to see if someone comes looking for him. He was plenty dirty (no mats, though), had fleas and seems thin for his size. And he ate like he hadn't had a regular meal. So, I would say he was not lost just recently.

The vet thinks he is about a year and a half old. He weighed 9 pounds. Tested Negative/Negative.

He also has 1 extra front toe! (1 big mitten, 1 regular front paw)

Columbus's exploring days are over. He's now safely inside!

My husband is the same way....he says 3 is enough


If it were up to me, I would have a household full, just like Jen, Lisa and all the rest!!

Hi Columbus! You sure are a cutie pie! If you are lost, and someone is looking for you.... you have found the best place to be while waiting "to be found"! Jen will take such good care of you and give you lots of luvvins!

Wow, Jen, you are truly amazing!

[Medusa]

My husband is the same way....he says 3 is enough !

3? Did you say 3? I can't even remember those days. It's been so long....

[shais_mom]

what a pretty boy!

[Freedom]

He he, Jen, you must just give off the right vibes for miles! These kitties do know who they can come to, don't they?

Such a handsome boy, best wishes with the vet check!

[cassiesmom]

He's beautiful!

[kimlovescats]

So glad that he tested negative!!! I agree, if he did have an owner, it's been a while and he deserves better!!!

My first cat took a hike one time (out a window and on to the roof) and reappeared weeks later. She had her collar on and finally took the time to sit somewhere in public so someone could read her name etc. A vet called me to let me know that they had my cat, near death. I was living in Aspen Colorado at the time, so you can imagine the vet bill. Sabrina, the kitty, lived to be 21.

So it is not always an irresponsible owner, although an open window is being a bit irresponsible isn't it?

What a sweet, sweet girl she was. I paid someone to board her while I lived in a hotel, ski bummed and worked as a maid. It was fun. I think she enjoyed living with some guys for that same time cycle. She was a dear.

I hope Columbus finds his owners or a great new home. They all deserve the love and attention, even though they have been known to create their own little problems by taking off!
