Our part-time cat (with a happy ending)

For a few days, this orange cat kept wandering around our neighborhood.

One evening, he was sitting quietly outside our door, staring into our house through the glass like he belonged here.

He looked hungry, so we grilled a little meat for him.

Since we weren’t sure if he had a home, we posted him on a local lost-pet site.

Later, his owner reached out — and he was safely reunited.

He doesn’t live here… but for a little while, he was our part-time cat 🧡

Wanda's afraid to go home. Something spooky is at the neighbors.

She's got beef with a tuxedo across the street. A void popped into the equation last week. Not 100% sure how she feels about it. She's often spooked about something. but 95% of the time I don't see anything.

Bin is not my cat. But she visits a lot.

Bin is truly a part-time cat. She “lives” two houses down, but she often stays over at my home and comes and goes as she pleases. She is clearly maintaining multiple families, because she’s getting a tad fat - signs she’s manipulated a few households into feeding her (and I am one of the guilty parties, but I manage her food intake in my house fairly strictly). Her zoomies are frequent, she walks around like she owns the place, and has free rein to cause chaos as she sees fit. My housemate and I love Bin, and we have no idea what her other families have named her.

Moved in, last tenants abandoned this cat

3.3k Upvotes

TL;DR: Just moved in, last tenants abandoned their pet cat and I been slowly bribing it for love

This cat kept screaming outside every door and window of my house after just moving in 3 months ago. Drove me insane until I finally got to talking to some neighbors and found out the lady that lived here abandoned this cat when she moved out. It never left. There’s like 9-10 strays in my little neighborhood it’s kind of outta hand and multiple people have food bowls out. So I have decided to give it treat in hand offerings to this cat when it misses home. I think her old owner was a stoner because she definitely pops up anytime she smells the herb lol. Was pretty skiddish and I have an infant so I’ve just let it happen naturally. Here we are @ 3months I captured my first petting of said cat lol

Four months of Clarence. From sprinting at the sight of me through the door to letting me sit and pet him while he eats.

Potato came out from under our house two years ago. We spayed her after three months of gaining her trust. She still comes in to eat twice a day only to immediately leave. She occasionally sleeps in our tiny loft at night when it’s cold.

Yesterday he just came in through the balcony door, got some scritches, explored the apartment and then left. I guess I got a part time cat now

This is our neighbor’s cat. Our neighbor just had a newborn, so whenever she wants to get some quiet time, she comes at least once a day and chill, hangout and leaves.

My part-time cat disappeared and I'm heartbroken.

My neighbor's cat disappeared 1 month ago and I'm heartbroken. He didn't like being alone and would come hangout with me the whole day when my neighbor was working. At lunchtime I would go out with him in the backyard to play fetch. He loves running after rocks and sticks XD.

I searched for him every night for 2 weeks. I searched the whole neighborhood. At this point I'm just hoping someone kidnapped him and that he is happy somewhere.

Sorry for the post. I'm just so sad. Some neighbors told me I shouldn't be because he wasn't my cat. That I shouldn't look more sad than ly neighbor... So I needed a place where people could understand me.

Swell is a great cat, and I hope I will see him again one day.

Part-time cat Wanda showed up with a tracker for the first time yesterday. Her afternoon nap is pictured. She also thought yesterday would be the perfect day to swing by at 10:00 p.m. and ask to sleep over.

There's a phone number on her tag so I sent a message to her owners this morning explaining her whereabouts. She's been fully authorized for future sleepovers if she wants.
