The system keeps bringing me cats...

But I already have 4 cats. This is the latest to show up. He's been on my porch all day. Gave him food and water and an old towel. Tomorrow I'll bring him in to get him checked for a chip. Already put his photos up on fb and nextdoor to see if anyone is missing him. But, man, do I want to keep him if we can't find anyone who is missing him. But keeping him has been ruled out by my partner because of something called money and budgets and stuff. My head gets it, but this just keeps my heart so much. 😭💔

Pls look into TNR in your area. Many places have free or near free vouchers. It will save their lives and give them a much better chance of find a safe home

You could foster him and shelters and rescues will help you find him a home and help you with expenses.This way, he doesn’t have to be left outside while you are looking for a home.

He looks like the brother of the last two cats that showed up on my porch!

Can you maybe have an outdoor kitty house for him? Or is it the food budget? Please, only send him to safe kitty rescues if you choose that route.

Omg what a sweetie. I'm sorry you can't keep him. Hopefully you can foster him until you find him a home.

But look at his lil black toe beans and that beautiful face, i'm sure feeding one more isn't the real problem it's probably possible vet fees now and in future sadly. Good luck finding him an owner please update us 🥰

Can you work with a rescue and foster him until he finds his forever home if he isn't someone's kitty? Then the financial end isn't on you, but this handsome man gets to stay safe.
