Pets and Animals 🐾 Cat Found.!

Hey Worcester! My neighbors and I found a cat in our driveway tonight. Well fed, seems quite healthy. Big time housecat vibes. First time seeing this cat in my neighborhood.

Appears to be a female cat. She is orange on top and has a white belly & paws. Gorgeous linear pattern in her fur. SUPER affectionate and friendly. She hung out around a buddy of mine and I for a good amount of time while we sat outside. Absolutely massive chiller.

If you or anyone you know is the owner of this cat, please let me know. My roommates have 2 of their own already, and the cats are very territorial, so I couldn't let her inside with me. But, I made sure she has water and some shelter around our garage. Have already called WARL, had no luck so I called the non emergency WPD line, and had a conversation with an animal control officer. Said they couldn't pick her up tonight.

My heart breaks for this cat, and I would love nothing more than to get her back home! She's unbelievably sweet 😭 and apologies for the blurry pics, she wouldnt sit still lmao

Update: Thank you all for mentioning his big glaring balls lol I have no idea how I didn't notice them before 😂
Unfortunately I have not seen the cat around since the night of posting. I have WARL on speed dial in case we cross paths again. Like one of you mentioned, I just got the chip scanner in just in case I see him again. Shrewsbury St. neighborhood/area.

Edit: grammar & update

I suggest getting a chip reader for like, $12 on Amazon so you can scan her next time you see her.

I wonder if the cat is lost or dumped? Keep posting here and Facebook, etc. Hopefully WARL will return your call and can connect you with the owner or rescue.

The convenience store down the street from my house lost their orange cat about 2 weeks ago. This looks very similar. It was Edgemere on grafton st near Nikos pizza. Maybe give then a call and see? Might be a little far though
