I got word of two cats that are Persians being fed by a woman somewhat near me. She doesn't see them often, but I went there today, and she pointed out the house across the way where she's been seeing them. I walked around that house, and saw nothing, but at the next one over (by a busy street ) there was a matted up seal-point Himalayan/Persian, and also a matted orange one. The kid from upstairs leaned out the window, and I asked him if the cats were his. He told me they belong to the downstairs neighbor (who has a black one as well) and the cats stay outside because they attack the dog! The cats are in dire need of grooming, and a meal other than trash pickings. I did see a dish on the back deck, but didn't look to see if it had food or not. The can of wet I put down was gobbled up by the Himmi. I debated about knocking on the door and asking the guy if I could have the cats, but know the answer would likely be "NO"! Hmmm...I'm terribly tempted to make them go "POOF" into the night, and give them a better life than what they have now. I didn't even see the black one the kid told me about. Last week we had a bitter cold drop in temps where it was minus 16 wind chill! Painfully cold for me to even open the door for one moment to let our dogs out, and I hate to think that these cats spent the night in it all matted up! To thieve, or not to thieve that is the question.
