Early this past spring, we had a young cat, barely older than a kitten, come wandering by. He was really scrawny and scraggly and since then we've been feeding him a couple times a day. He's now quite healthy looking and not at all mean or viscous and we suspect he was abandoned, maybe by some people who moved out recently?
Stray Kitty can't stay with us (we already have two cats and my father said "Hell no") so I'm trying to find him a home before the snow comes. I really don't want to take him to a shelter where he probably won't be adopted.
Stray Kitty is very, very sweet and curious with the sweetest, softest little meow. He seems to be a calico, I think. He's white and his back and tail are a combo of brown and gray with leopard spots on his back and stripes on his tail. On the back of each leg is a dark gray/brown smudge of color. He has a sweet, sad face and a bit of a hurt ear (we think he was in a fight). He doesn't have mites and isn't shedding.
I'm hoping to find him a warm, loving home and he seems to be perfectly okay with other cats (albeit hesitant and timid). I will pay for his shots and everything.
If you or anyone you know are interested, PLEASE LET ME KNOW AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! It's cold at night and I really don't want him to have to suffer through the snow.
I'm in Twinsburg, about an hour outside of Cleveland and not afraid of driving to meet up.
Thanks.

If we weren't dead broke and borrowing money for bills, I'd say yes. Cats are just too cute. However, I can't in good conscience adopt a cat when we aren't sure if we can eat...
GOOD LUCK, STRAY KITTY.

Hi!
I would so love to help, but I have taken in 6 myself. We live on a small farm and receive many strays. Try putting up free posters in the local pet shops. You can also advertise for free in the newspaper. I hope you can find a home soon.

I'm in the exact same situation myself. :( A stray showed up at my apartment a few weeks ago and I need to find him a home. He's the sweetest friendliest cat I've ever met. I've called all the local shelters and none of them are accepting cats. Good luck.
