Found kitten!

[amethystmoon.livejournal.com]

Latest Update: owner found! The cat's 4 months old, and his owner is trying to get him acclimated to the outdoors. So his "I'm not really an outdoor cat" behavior is really more "Let me get the hang of this...". :) So, if you see him around Hancock in the future, say hi, pet, but don't worry. If you see him terribly much further than Hancock, you may want to give a heads-up. The owner is very grateful for everyone's concern, and says he's going to get the kitty a collar.

Update: Animal Control is posting to the city's lost-and-found website, and in the mean time a friend is taking care of him. No shelter, yay!

I found a gray and white kitten on Hancock St., between Summer and Highland. If you think he's yours, please contact me! He is currently in my house, tomorrow morning I'll be giving him to Animal Control.

Description of kitten:
Wicked friendly. No collar. He's probably less than a year, more than 5 months (but may be older than a year - I'm bad with judging age). Has some distinctive gray spots on his pink nose, and patches of grey on the backs of his white legs. White belly, white muzzle.

I saw him on Hancock without a collar on Monday morning, and then tonight some other people were fretting over him. I called 311, who asked me to keep him overnight and leave a message for Animal Control. Since the cat is SUPER friendly and let me pick him up to take him in, that's what I'm doing.
