New Cat (?)
2012-03-19 07:58It looks like we may have acquired another cat.
There's been a stray coming around for the last couple of months, and Kit's been feeding her occasionally. She (the cat) is thin, and her coat indicates that she's spent a lot of time outdoors this winter (very thick undercoat). She answers to the name "Beautiful", so that's her provisional name.
Today when she came around to look in all our windows and get fed, we grabbed her and brought her inside. She goes to the vet tomorrow. First order of business is to see if she has a chip (no collar, or there'd be no thought of adopting her).
Right now, she's shut into the front room, with me. She's been eating, exploring (but not using) the litter box, and, occasionally, coming over to get petted. She even purred for me, a little.
As soon as she gets a clean bill of health, we'll start thinking about introducing her to the other cats. I'm sure that will be a *lot* of fun ...
