WARNING to Cat Fosters/To Adopt
I have no idea how to say this and if you want the full details please PM me so, here it is.
I have a black cat to adopt out (a stray I found, see my post)
About a year 1/2 ago I had saved another black cat (now with a forever home). Back then this guy, an editor in NYC, from Philly, asked for the cat. Long story short.... all this time later, unbeknownst to him, he's been contacting me about this new cat. Similar story, slight discrepancies. I keep reposting on craigslist, and he keeps contacting me not knowing it's the same cat and person.
I'm worried he's a fake and up to no good. I wonder if anyone else has been contacted by him. PM me for details.
I also received this email that should be considered by all people adopting out right now:

I have been warning people all over Craigs List not to adopt black cats out to anyone during this Halloween season. People into witchcraft and Santaria look to adopt black cats for sacrificial reasons. Please, please try to hold off until the Halloween season is over.I really do think this person has been for a few years or more pulling some sort of ... well.... I hate to think what he's done with the cats that have been given to him.

When I was looking for fosters/potential adopters on craigslist over the summer for my TNR cats, I did not have a very good experience. There were lots of shady characters just wanting a cat (a few were honest and admitted to wanting mousers).

Thanks for the warning Mamacita!

I do know that shelters will not adopt out black cats this time of year
Howdy, Stranger!
