Yesterday, when I was out biking, I saw this beautiful cat. I brought it home, as it seemed lost. Now it has begun biting, and it seems very scared as it sits there all curled up in the corner of my livingroom... btw. I have never seen cats that where as good a climber as this one. Should I let it run?

You should take that cat to the Vet to make sure it is disease free. Especially if it bit you.

That cat my not be mentally ready for an owner. If it is scared, something bad may have happened to it.

I would definately have a Vet check it out.

Been done to death on Craigslist and the like. Most people use a pic of a possum or skunk.

happyi think you should keep it with you but go back to the place you found it and advertise the fact that you have found this cat just incase there are some concerned owners looking for there pet, you could put notices on the trees and lamp posts in the area where you found the cat with your phone number on and see if anyone claims him.

your picture has confused me, this is not a picture of a cat?

It isn't?!? wow, now I'm confused... but it does make kind of sense. hmm

Just leave the cat alone for the time being, and see if it begins to roam around the house. Most times cats like to get acclimated to their surroundings before they commit to remaining. If he doesn't get used to the house and the people soon, then I guess you better let him outside, maybe put some food and water out there, and see if the cat returns happy

I think the cat you brought home is now feeling more lost and confused and missing its oweners. If the cat looked well fed etc you should have just left the cat alone as I'm sure he would have gone home on his own. If he is underfed etc then you should take him straight away to the cats home to be looked after, he may have a diease or something else not nice and if he bites you you may catch something.
I don't think you have acted in the cats best interest.

Okay, thank you for the tip... It has been behaving weird. So I'm inclined to thinking that you are right, maybe it wasn't in the cat's best interest... I'll return it to the lawn next to the zoo where i found it.

Um...your pic is of a ring-tailed lemur. They are primates, not felines, although their latin name is lemur catta (which is where I suspect the idea to use the photo came from). Unless you are near a zoo or are living in Madagascar, you didn't find this animal while out biking.


jbond1978 (16)   ranked 457 out of 2,259 in animals  1 year ago

You may be right:/ It's a fraud... actually I knew it was not a cat. I took it from the zoo next door because I needed something to write about here at MyLot. I apologize to all of you, and assure you, that the monkey will be back in the zoo tomorrow morning.

(here I hope that you know I am joking, and that this post was a hoax in the first place... somebody didn't get the joke)
