Lost Cat? Outdoor Pet? Street Cat?

A reader writes in wondering whether the friendly cat he encountered at 11th and H Street is a lost pet, an outdoor house cat with no collar, or a stray or "community" cat.

  1. This looks a lot like my indoor cat--is it possible to get the poster's contact information? I live in the area and am at work right now but am concerned my cat somehow could have gotten out.

  2. J-Star,
    The photo is from yesterday morning, so if you have seen your cat since then you are good. If not, shoot me an email at Elise.bernard[@]gmail.com and I'll connect you two.

  3. I've seen this cat a bunch! I've also seen it get fed by two different houses, one on G and one on 11th.

  4. If you're really worried, take it to Atlas Vet and have them scan for a microchip. If the cat seems to be well-fed and used to people, then it might just be an outdoor cat that lost/escaped its collar.

Guys, please be polite. Remember that these people are your neighbors. I ask also that anonymous users leave some kind of tag [e.g. big green cat] for the sake of being able to follow a thread. Be respectful and have fun.
