I have been unable to locate an owner. I put flyers up, contacted all local vets and shelters, and checked the papers for lost cat ads.

My neighbor Spike adopted him. Spike is a cool old man who says he was a cat in a former life. I'm so glad kitty has found a home.

This cat was so friendly. I kept him in my studio, and would go out and read and kitty would sit on my lap and purr. I would have kept him if we were not moving.

I just wanted people who read the old thread to know that kitty found a good home.

1. Yippee!

Do you know what Spike named him?

[Melsky]

3. Not yet

He told me he has to consult with his girlfriend about the name. He said she's going to be thrilled when she sees the cat, she is also a big cat lover.

2. I don't know what's cooler:

a) You found (or you were found) by a cool cat in an unlikely place.

b) You know a cool old guy named Spike!


(I'm changing my name to "Spike")

5. awesome...

I'm really glad. That was really nice of you to put so much effort into it.

6. what a beauty!

I have a very similar-looking cat, and he is a delight. They say those marmalade cats have unusually pleasing personalities.

8. I have a marmalade cat

he does have a very sweet disposition, and he's very smart.

7. Sounds Like You Found Him a Great Home!

What a great ending to the story.

9. Anybody At DU

Cares for their pets because the hairy critters have adopted them.

You're marked for life as a caring "pet" person because the Hairy Beast taped an "Adopt Me" sign on your backside.

10. I read your thread to my cat, Spike.

he almost opened an eye and soundly thumped his tail on the recliner where he is presently lounging.
He's pleased that 'desert cat' is home and your neighbor is found, and you've done a most goodly of good things.

'all is well in the world', says Spike.
