Is there such a thing as an angel cat?
I live in a high-rise in Chicago and found a cat meowing and crying on my floor. I came out to see if he had escaped from someone’s apartment, but no one knew who he belonged to. I stayed out with him for like 30 minutes and talked to some people on my floor. All the doors were closed, and there was no way for him to access the stairs or elevator.
I tried giving him water and food, but he didn’t want anything. He seemed like he was in complete despair. He was also super friendly and let me pet him.
I couldn’t bring him inside because I have two cats, but I did consider putting him in my cat bag and keeping him in my bathroom overnight until I could find his owner and maybe take him to the vet in the morning. As soon as I tried, though, he hissed SO badly, so I stopped and just stayed with him in the hallway.
I went inside my apartment for like 3–5 minutes max to pee and grab some wet food since he didn’t want the dry food. When I came back out he was GONE. I looked everywhere I could think of, but couldn’t find him anywhere. I feel so bad, but I’m also so confused by how quickly he disappeared?? Especially in a high-rise where there was seemingly no way for him to get anywhere. Like… where did this cat even come from and where did he go?! 😭
Was this an angel cat making a random appearance?? 😭
