You are a true angel - thank you for continuing to provide food and water...you are saving this kitty's life...praying you'll be able to gain the cat's trust enough to get into a carrier to check for a microchip at some point...posting up flyers on both sides of lamp posts 1 block in every direction from you though if kitty is showing up in the backyard - chances are he/she came from one of the residents playfully they didn't lose kitty and move away..please dont give up on trying to find the kitty's guardian ...thank you for reposting and hopefully you can post to nextdoor too (from my previous note) I'm in Spain feeding stray cats at the moment...my heart breaks for all the hungry cats...thank you for taking care of this poor beautiful creature💖💖🙏🐱

Dear kind compassionate neighbor. I ADORE people like you who look out for the often ignored lost/stray roaming kitty. Thank you for posting on pawboost and for feeding this sweet and what appears to be an elderly at. Old cats don't survive outside... Lost cats tend to stay near their last residence. Especially a senior cat - she belongs to someone within that block probably not more than 1 or 2 neighbors away...poor thing. Some move away and abandon their pets unfortunately too.. Unfortunately many kitty owners give up WAY TOO SOON on the search assuming kitty is never coming back or deceased (not realizing how close they remain and/or sometimes they're trapped in a garage etc) Kitty could belong to an elderly person who lives alone and/or doesn't use the internet or know how to find kitty (or can't physically get around well)....so informing your neighbors in person is so important. ***IMPORTANT***

What a gorgeous kitty. Hoping it will let you get close enough to get it in a carrier to get scanned for a microchip. Try putting fliers on nearby neighbors porches asking them if they know who’s kitty it is. Post on Nextdoor too snd file a found report with the shelter. Thanks for posting, hoping someone recognizes it
