It was a scarey ride!

[Laura's Babies]

Yesterday, I got a phone call from the park manager where I live asking me to come up to his shop.. I go and this big guy was there in a trap... He hadn't trapped him, it was the only thing he had to put him in... Here is the story... (The kitty is being called "Toby" for now....)

A lady in the park had went out visiting and when she got home and pulled in her driveway, Lewis saw something fall out from under her car. He walked over to investigate and he found this guy! The lady had NO idea he was up under her car or where he came from, she only knew she didn't want a cat! This boy had been fixed and declawed and is VERY healthy looking and I judge in to be between 15 to 20 pounds. He is the friendliest thing, you can pick him up and love on him all you want. He is terrified of the outside so I talked the manager into letting him loose in the shop and keeping him as a "shop" cat until we could find out where he belongs.

Mike got on the phone and called several of the rescue orginazations and checked the newspaper for lost cat ads and he found 2 and called them. This is not the cat those people were looking for. I am thinking about calling the vets around here and see if one of them would scan him to see if he is microchipped since I know he belongs somewhere and someone is looking for him. He is to healthy and loving to be a stray. Here is Toby

Oh Toby, what's your story???

Gladyou and the ranger are taking care of him! A declawed should NEVER be outside, they can't protect themselves well and can't climb a tree to escape danger!

Any chance of you keeping him? A nice big huggable orangie!

[Laura's Babies]

I am at my limit already and can not take him but I would love to! Amy is so stressed out with Boo here that I couldn't, even if I had the room. While things are going good with Boo now, the stress level is still high due to all the attacking she did when I first introduced her here and the stress is taking a toll on Amy's CH.

Lewis does not want to turn Toby over to the shelter... I think he has fell in love with this one and would keep him himself if we can not locate the owner and make a shop cat out of him as long as he will stay in the shop with the doors open.

He sure is a lovely looking cat

Oh Toby, you are a beautiful boy. I hope if someone is missing you they can be found so you can be reunited with your family. If not, I hope you can be a shop kitty with Lewis.

[Randi]

What a lovely boy, Toby is! He looks so much like Fister, except for the white. I hope you can find his family, or the shop owner will keep him.

Best of luck to Toby!

What a gorgeous boy! If he winds up as a shop cat, I hope he won't dash out with the doors open, being declawed and all.

Dear Toby - if you are lost, your people must be heartbroken (they BETTER be!).

I would think he crawled under her car at the place she was visiting! He wouldn't do it while she was driving. Could she or you call her friend and find out if the friend knows someone with a big orangie?

Poor Lewis - if Toby finds his home, he'll just have to rescue another!

[catnapper]

Poor Toby certainly does look lost anf freightened. Good for you looking ot find his family, as it certainly seems he's not meant to be lost... his fluffiness would attest to that!

PS: Are you sure you haven't found my Allen? Good thing I saw him eating 15 minutes ago or I'd be searching for him right now

[momcat]

What a beautiful boy! Toby, you look so sweet and friendly I'd love to snuggle with you. Don't worry, there's nothing for you to be scared of. The folks who found you will love you, care for you, and do everything they can to help you find your furever family. They must be missing you a lot!

I agree with Catty1 - check the place where the woman was visiting. And the scanning for a chip is a given.

Hi Toby...Antoinette here!

I know what you went through - I did the same thing in a Dodge 1-ton.
Ya think ya found a nice comfy warm spot and suddently you are hitching a ride.
I truly hope someone is looking for you right now and you find your home and family soon. Don't be scared now though, you are in good safe hands not matter what.
