Needs Rehoming 🐾 Stray cat
I took in a stray cat on December 16th due to my neighbor getting very angry because I was feeding the strays. I live in an apartment and didn't want trouble. I believe this kitty was previously domesticated and then abandoned due to how friendly he is. I think he's about 6 to 9 months old. It's a ginger kitty, uses the litter box, very playful, loving, no spraying, good behavior. I can not take care of this cat due to fixed income, medical issues, and over 70 y/o. It's getting harder everyday because he needs more attention than I can physically give. It's also costing me so much to feed him and provide him with just the basic items cats need. I can not afford to take him to the vet. I have called several cat rescue agencies, but they aren't taking cats in or they refer me to the animal shelter. I did leave a message with Kirkland's and will hopefully hear from them. Is there anyone out there interested in taking this sweet loving kitty into your home, or a rescue who would find it a good home? I think it's a male because I read that most gingers are male. Thank you so much. I live in Fresno, Ca.

Sometimes there are local Buy Nothing groups who will contribute cat food either by posting it or by asking them. There are also groups on Reddit (I think one is just called assistance and the other is Random Acts of Pet Food. The former you need to participate a bit by liking or commenting there I think before getting approved to post for help. You can create an Amazon wishlist and ppl are usually very kind and will send to you.) I also think people in your community would contribute and there are also pet food pantries. Thank you for helping this cat and best of luck!!
