Community Cat!

Sooo in my last post, "Confessions of this crazy mom", I made a "note to self" that it is NOT a good thing to feed stray cats.. because stray cats don't leave!! Well.. so this cat that came to our house.. who is a HIM but we named HIM BELLE ( Belle rules the universe you know!.. yes the Belle from Beauty and the Beast).. anyhow... So I put an add on KSL..and craigs list... They have a "lost pets" section. So this lady calls me and asks about "belle". Sounds like its her cat.. she sends me a pic.. looks just like her cat. She came over.. wasn't her cat. She was so bummed.. as was I.. because I would like to get rid of the da** thing! Well.. lucky day for me.. She wants to take the cat anyway! PARTY PARTY PARTY! So she takes the cat.. this is on Friday morning. Sooo last night we get home, LATE.. there is a message from this nice lady. The cat is NOT doing so hot and she wants to bring him back! HA!!! ALL SALES FINAL LADY!! (I didn't really sell him to her). So .. I didn't call her back.. i'm not going to. I'm REALLY afraid that they are going to just come and drop the little fur ball off.. with no notice! NOW every time I have stepped outside today I say a little prayer that I don't find Belle at my feet when I step out the door! So far.. so good! This lady.. she really is sooooo nice... she has my cell phone number and my home phone. I'm also praying that she doesn't call again. SOOO if anyone would like to participate in the community cat program... call me. If Belle happens to make it back here.. and you would like a turn.. I'll be glad to send him your way... although.. the next time there will be no refunds, exchanges, or returns!

We re-homed our dog Scout earlier this year and I lived in constant dread of phone calls for a week. Hopefully the lady can make it work with her new kitty.
