Message from Owner

My sweet kitty boy is missing. He did not come for breakfast Dec. 20 which is very not like him. I have been worried sick about him. He is a gray tabby short hair, about 5 years old. He is a chunky muscular boy weighing about 16 lbs. He is neutered. He was a stray who showed up at our hse a couple of years ago. Neighbors were familiar with him. He must have been raised lovingly from a kitten and then put out for some strange reason. He is very loving and sweet and will let anyone pet him. We call him Papa Kitty because we're pretty sure he fathered a litter of kittens that were born under our hse. All of the kittens are different shades of gray tabby, and one is very like him in many ways. He may come if called. He comes when I call him. He is an outside kitty because he is FIV positive and we have 3 indoor cats, all courtesy of the cat distribution network, and my son and daughter in law are afraid he will infect the other cats, otherwise I would keep him indoors. He has a nice heated hse where he stays during cold or rainy weather. He is vaccinated for rabies. No collar as I didn't want him to get choked on something. We have a friend who lost a cat that way and it was horrible. Not microchipped. So he wanders, usually in a small area near . We are in Rosewood on the west end of Charlie Braswell Rd. If you've seen him, please let me know!. I would be so grateful. He helped me through a hard time and I miss him terribly! Thank you!

Rose Henderson What please? I was under the impression that there was no way to treat it. Just be sure he gets health care when he needs it.

Wait he’s FIV pos so you left him outside to infect other cats but not your own? It will spread if he bites another cat. More likely to happen outside with other strays than inside with other pets because they tend to fight outside over food and territory. Also you can put him on inside. Hope you find him.

AnnaMarie Sanderson I am very happy that things worked out for you with your boy. My boy is not hostile to people at all, but I think he feels competitive with other cats, I guess because he was on his own for so long. I would give almost anything if he wasn't sick and I could bring him in.

I understand. We don't have to agree but there is no hate! It is your cat and you are caring for him. That's what matters most! And yes a deep wound without proper cleaning can transmit the virus. That is why cats living harmoniously in the same home rarely pass it on to each other. I will pray Papa is found soon and returned home to you! Best of luck!
