WHEN RETURNING KITTY TO OWNER   

To make sure kitty is returned to it's real owner, we suggest to make sure you are being provided with a detailed description of kitty, some unique behavior, photo of kitt,etc.  that makes you feel confident that you are dealing with rightful owner.

A MUST TO KNOW BEFORE PLACING KITTY IN A SHELTER

If you find that you can.t find owner if at all possible adopt the kitty. Only 2% to 5% of the kitties get adopted from shelters.  Also, many shelters after keeping a kitty for a week or two have the kitty put to sleep. An alarming 70% of kitties placed in shelters get to be put to sleep.  If you must put kitty in Shelter, place it in a shelter where it has the best chance of survival . Ask what happens to kitty once it is left there.

Found Cat on Merritt Parkway. Brownish/black long haired tabby found at reststop on Merrit Parkway, southbound between exits 56 & 55 (Orange, CT) night of July 23, 2011.
Female cat, about 4 years old according to our vet.  Very friendly.  Came up to us crying, and even jumped onto the hood of our car.  Nobody at the reststop claimed her.  She has obviously been well cared for.  She doesn't have fleas and wasn't hungry when we got her home, so she must not have been outside too long.  The employees at the reststop said that people sometimes abandon pets there.  We don't know if we took home an abandoned pet, or a lost cat.  If you think this is your cat, email Todd at todd_hayes@yahoo.com with subject "Lost Cat".

Before declawing a cat consider this   Declawing indeed does hurt cats. Perhaps it is because anesthetics are used during the procedure that the myth has grown that declawing does not hurt . During this  procedure each of the cat's front toes at the front joint are cut off -- cutting through the bone!
Unlike humans cats cannot rest after surgery, cats need to move about and, in the case of declawing, this places weight on the wounds which is very painful.
