Free kitten

I found this little fella outside in the parking lot around noon today.

He's definitely male, a gray tiger tabby about 10 weeks old - very likely the littermate of another we found in the back yard last month but were unable to save. Unlike the poor, deceased black kitty, this one is apparently in good health. He's also extremely affectionate with people. In fact, he refuses to be left in a crate: he wants lap time, and HOW. He's quite vocal about not liking to be boxed in (blame my husband: he felt the kitten was feeling cold in here and was holding it all afternoon, the softy).

We really can't keep him, not with three other cats -not to mention the big male weighs about 25 lbs!- and a dog already in the house. In addition, my father-in-law will pitch a fit if we try. FiL doesn't even know he's in the house right now.....

I'm going to give him a bath tomorrow to get rid of as many fleas and dirt as possible. He's definitely going to need shots, deworming and neutering.

Won't someone please take him home? The shelters are all at capacity and then some...

NO FAIR posting the picture!!!

If I was sure my dog and other cat wouldn't eat it I'd consider. The only one who would accept it would be Murray...or of course Lily would take it in as a chew toy.

Bummer, no can do. We have reached our pet quota. The soft spot in my head opened and closed two weeks ago. Little bugger looks like my baby that died three years ago.

Sorry, I'm out of the kitten business. After Boo, I don't think I could take another in and let it go. Also, the three girls might take issue...

So... no takers?

Come on, people!

Jessica: I tried yesterday afternoon, they said they're full.

Honestly, if it wasn't because neither Angel nor Tommy like him he could stay. Angel wants nothing more than to be an only cat, and Tommy could kill the kitten just by sitting on him, T's that big. Patch seems to not mind his presence - but he hasn't been checking the little one out, either.

I would take him but I am not quite ready to be divorced just yet.

Even though I have wanted a cat for like a year now. Wah!

No cat on this earth immediately likes another. They all need time to get used to each other. Give 'em some time.

As for shots and "fixing him" there are low/no cost options out there...
