Re: found a kitten
Hi Marmite,
Thanks for looking out for this little guy. While I can understand he has completely captured your heart and you'd dearly love to keep him I think you should first do your utmost to see if he does have an owner who is missing him. There is nothing worse than having your kitty go missing and not know what's happened to him/her. Here are a list of tips and things to do for anyone who may have found a cat. Please check out the following list of missing kitties from the national pet register - it is worth keeping an eye on the listing in case he appears in the next few days: Missing Cats and Lost Cats Missing Pets Register you can search by county. Advice Cats Protection gives out when people think they have found a cat (some may be helpful to you). If you have a cat living with you or visiting and think is either lost, abandoned, the owner has moved and left it behind, or appears to be just roaming around, sadly all too common, DO NOT ASSUME IT HAS NO OWNER (OR ASSUME IT HAS), PLEASE REPORT IT TO AS MANY RESCUES AS POSSIBLE IMMEDIATELY (see:- Cat Rescue Shelters, Adoption Centres and Rehoming Groups across the UK) for some in your area. EVEN IF IT LOOKS IN PERFECT HEALTH, PLEASE THINK HOW YOU WOULD FEEL IF YOU LOST YOUR CAT AND SOMEONE DID NOT BOTHER TO REPORT IT. It may simply be lost and could have been lost months previously. It is not unknown for cats to get into cars, removal vans, and so on, and be transported miles from their homes. Rescues have hundreds of cats on their lost/found register and the number increases on a daily basis. Most of the cats who go missing must be out there somewhere and, although we do manage to reunite quite a few with their owners, most of them are taken in or being fed by well meaning people, but are never actually reported. Depending on the condition of the cat and the safety of the location rescues can decide what course of action to take to ensure the cat receives all the help it needs. E.G. if the cat is well please call your local rescues and ask them to check the lost list, take the cat to a vet to see if has been micro chipped. If there is no record and the cat is well and not in a dangerous location perhaps you could on a long thin piece of paper write do I belong to you and your telephone number then attach the paper to a cat collar by wrapping sellotape round and round then put the collar on the cat if after 3 days you have received no reply take the collar off as many are considered dangerous and many cats have lost their life to them. Safer paper collars are available free from Cats Protection. Ring the local rescues and ask them to put the cat on the list waiting to come in. Please offer the cat shelter & feed it, I know some organizations say don't and they it will move on, however in our view that is callous, I am sure if you lost a pet it would be nice to think someone, somewhere was caring for it. Also the cat has a greater chance of finding its owner or coming into care and finding a new permanent home, as it is not roaming from street to street looking for its next meal and endangering its life. If the cat appears below par please contact a local rescue immediately and ask if they will pay for the cat to be seen by a vet and if possible take the cat in. So many people place a notice in a shop saying FOUND etc, please remember that if the cat is going home even if only once a week as far as the owner is concerned they have not lost it so may not realise you are talking about their cat.

Re: found a kitten
the chances are he has got a home (my head knows this) so tomorrow i will get him down the vets.
just before i went to bed last night i opened the front door and he walked out slowly so i left him out when i got up this morning and opened the door to let one of my cats out he ran back in soaked with rain so i had to dry him with a towel. now he just follows me where ever i go he doesnt seem interested in the litter tray either, but he loves his food![]() |

Re: found a kitten
i have just been out in the garden to pick up the poo he did last night and i is really runny
and he eats alot and has a big tummy so i am 90% sure he has worms and has them quite bad if he has got a home then i dont think he is wormed that much![]() |
