Blue Maiden: totus tuus

I'm feeling down today. I have to take my little kitty friend to the Humane Shelter.

We live in an apartment that does not allow pets. Granted half the complex has them illegally. But even if we wanted to break the rules, it would be way to hard to hide him on a first story apartment. Besides from what I can tell he has fleas, tapeworms, and possibly ear mites. Oh and he hasn't been neutered, at least last I checked.

We live off a busy road and worry he will get hit. I told the neighbor I would help her catch him, in hopes that the shelter could find him a home. I must say it has been nice having him around. I miss having pets and his presence has eased that. He is such a nice cat, and deserves the chance at a real home. If only we had a house lined up... but we don't.

The worst part is the shelter changed their hours, so the little guy has to sit in the carrier for another 3 hours. He has been crying and shaking the door since I put him in it. I can't let him out or he'll run off. I did give him some food and water. He ate like there was no tomorrow, poor little guy. I don't suppose you know anyone in the Central Ohio region that wants a little black cat with a white star on his chest?

Yeah we don't either...
