Spikelike posted in the following notice in the forum:
We found a female tabby cat who is black and brown at our apartment building near 14th and 51st. We believe her to be an American Short Hair. It looks like her tail was broken when she was younger but has since healed, she tends to keep it curled up. She is very friendly and very loving as well as very curious.
“We will be keeping her with us for a day then taking her to the shelter on 15th between downtown and Ballard,” Spikelike writes. Here is another photo of the cat.
Here are her stats:
Sex: Female
Breed: American Short Hair?
Color: Black and Brown
Pattern: Tabby
Size: ~12-13″ tall, ~15-18″ long and does not weigh very much at all
If this is your fuzzy feline, Spikelike’s contact information is in the forum.
Update: “We found the missing kitty’s owner. Her name is Shasta and apparently she was stolen. I guess she escaped and made it to our door which is not far from her home. We are taking her home tonight.
Just as a note, she found her way home tanks to myballard.com and their forums! Makes me very happy that I live in a community where this could happen.”
What a cutie! Maybe you could bring her by a vet's office in Ballard to see if she is microchipped. They'll usually scan for free.
Was there something about this cat that indicated it needed to be taken in, and wasn't just out exploring?
Someone has lost a Bengal on craigslist….does this cat have spots????
Spikelike, check the forum thread you started on this subject. :-)
She's a gorgeous kitty. I'm glad she's back home!
thanks so much for taking the effort to return the kitty to his home!! its always so heartwarming to see when people reach out to help our furry friends, it would have been much easier to just keep walking and leave the cat, so i greatly appreciate your efforts.
