We were adopted by a kitten last night (it's hard to leave them out in the cold when they look so hungry...). I would prefer to find him a home rather than take him to the humane society, and we already have a cat and a dog, so... He seems very friendly and quite young (but weaned). If you are looking for a pet, please call me.

The cat is not yet full grown, perfectly trained, and the sweetest thing you've ever seen! She is a black velvet beauty, and is living with 4 other cats with whom she gets along fine. She is also fond of people. She needs a home QUICKLY, as Margaret can't keep her much longer - 4 is really enough. PLEASE TAKE HER Dee Medley uiucdcs

Anyone interested in an adorable, free female kitten, approximately 2 months old please contact me. I recently found her and brought her to the vet to make sure that she was healthy. My cat doesn't like other cats so I can't keep her. I would really like to find her a good home. She very friendly and very pretty (black with some white and brown). ... kitc!wpw ( or ....eisx!kitc!wpw) Wendy

RE : Wendys offer of a kitten because her original cat doesn't like her. Whenever a new kitten is introduced into a home already containing cats, there will be disputes and the fur may fly for a week or two as everyone gets to know each other. We just recently lost one of our cats due to kidney failure and have just introduced a new kitten into the house. The dog ( a shepherd/retriever mix) has adjusted the quickest to the new kitten but due to his size we watch to make sure he doesn't get too rough. The two existing cats are a different story, they are aloof and not at all interested in the kitten until the kitten starts exploring and comes across them. Then they start hissing at each other and a couple of times Sheba (4 year cat) has bopped the kitten with her paw. The kitten occasionally gets a swing in and due to the fact that SHE still has her front claws gets a little bit of respect. Based on past experience we expect this behaviour to moderate over the next two weeks until it drops off to total play fighting levels.
