Here's what the humans have to say about me:
This is the story of Spotty, a feline who came to our yard in early January 2012, possibly, like in so many instances, abandoned by her owners or "dumped" in the neighborhood. She is a tiny beautiful grey, black and white striped cat not older than one year. We were not sure whether the cat was a female or male; acted like a feral cat. We made a cardboard basket for her in the garage, left food and water, as well... hoping that she would use it. After a couple of weeks the food was gone. A couple of weeks later we found her in the cardboard box, lined with blankets. From then on she would regularly eat the food, drink the water and sleep in the basket in the morning and late at night. We slowly approached her. She would loudly meow but would not let us touch her. After a while we could touch her just for a moment before she would growl and try to scratch us. We noticed that she was "filling out" and we strongly felt that she was pregnant; then we knew it was a "she". She has the most beautiful eyes. With the help of Carrie Holler (who loaned us a trap), a rescuer and Animas, the SPCA voucher procedure we were able to trap her and take her over the wonderful SPCA clinic where she was spayed. Since we did not want to release her we kept her in a large case (we kept for recovering cats and dogs) in our guest room where she has recovered beautifully, giving me the time to domesticate her. Amazingly, she has become a very affectionate and loving feline; has learned to play and is doing so well. Unfortunately, we already have three other cats (all rescued and one abused) and we are submitting this story in the hope that we find a loving family who will continue to domesticate her. We are definitely willing to foster her until we find a loving home for her. She is a most loving and affectionate feline!\ Any questions, please call Conny or Mars Doeve at (916) 424-0625 WE WILL SUPPLY FOOD FOR ONE YEAR AND WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR SUPPORT
