I wish I could adopt him but 1. I can’t afford it and 2. My two cats tried to attack him when I tried to temporarily keep him inside before finding his owner. So now I’m hanging outside with him while I post everywhere to try and find his owner or figure out a way to rehome him. What’s difficult though is that Seattle shelters don’t take any strays or lost pets. They told me they could get in trouble if they adopted out someone’s indoor/outdoor cat. I took him to the vet and he’s not micro chipped and I’m pretty overwhelmed and not sure what to do. He’s an angel and deserves a loving him but finding an org that’ll help me do that has been difficult. Pretty much everywhere I’ve contacted told me that if a cat is found in Seattle city limits I have to take home to the Seattle animal shelter, but the shelter already said they can’t take him. They told me to just let him free, but when I tried doing that he just sat outside my door waiting for me and crying. I also don’t want to just give him away to a random stranger that messages me on Nextdoor. Who knows if they have the right intentions. Anyone have any advice?
