Update on the young cat

Tweet

My daughter thought the kitten that came to our house belonged to the young woman across the street. I happened to see her out with her dogs to potty. I walked over to her and asked if that cat was hers. She said no, it wasn't. She said she thought it belonged to those neighbors that were moving (the ones that called us Walmart people). Those people were still coming to get carloads of stuff. That same young cat and another one were laying around near a storm drain (has a grate over it so animals won't fall in). The cats seemed to be laying and watching with interest of what was going on. I saw the lady and stepped just past our fence and introduced myself. I asked if those cats were hers. She said they just took up there. I explained that the gray tiger one was over to my house crying like a baby cries. I said you do plan to take them with you to where you are moving to, right? She didn't really give an answer. I told her that I'm just going to come out and say it: it's against the law to abandon animals when you move because the animals depend on you for their survival. She didn't like that I was being nosy in my questioning of her. I also told her that it is dangerous for cats to be roaming free. She didn't say much. I think she just wanted me to go away. She sees me as the person who called the cops on them for making bonfires. I didn't call, but sil did because it he smoke was smothering me. I think they took the cats with them. I've not seen that cat I told you about and I haven't seen the other one either. They have still left a mess in their yard. I didn't trespass on the property, but I've looked as far as I could from our own property. I don't see any sign of the cats. They both looked well nourished, but it bothered me that the tiger one cried almost the way a Siamese cat will cry like a baby. Maybe it just wanted to be petted. I don't venture out too much due to my breathing problems. I hope the cats are alright. No one here is a cat lover except me. When I get really upset I can't even communicate. It was about 3 days until I found out who actually owned that cat, and the other one too. When I saw the two cats lying beside each other, it made me think tiger kitty was maybe missing his friend or sibling. Wherever they are, I hope they are taken care of. Do you get concerned about wandering animals? Dogs have to be restrained in a fenced in yard, or on a pully or in a kennel if they are outside or on a leash.
