Dizzy the cat needs a home!!!!!!

Some of you may remember "Dizzy" the orange-and-white kitty I found outside my apartment building during the early June heatwave.

Well, I've been fostering him ever since, and trying to find him a place in a forever home, or at least with a foster organization or no-kill shelter.

To date, I have called 63 different places, some as far away as Massachusetts and the Catskills, and have gotten exactly the same reaction from all of them: "We don't have room. Its kitten season."

Now, I am a reasonable person and I accept that, but I wonder what these places would do with a cat that was just dumped on their doorstep? And these are places with resources and experience with cats, unlike me who is an animal lover but has no experience taking in a lost, scared cat.

Well, long story short, 2 months later "Dizzy" still needs a home. I've posted on Craig's List and received no responses. Enquiries at vets and pet stores have netted nothing.

I am going to try to take him to the Kensington Kitties mobile adoption van on Saturday, but have not been able to yet because I am a busy person and have been out of town or busy most weekends.

Dizzy is approximately 1yo, orange and white and *very* cute, medium sized (9-10lbs), playful, affectionate, litter trained, and - neutered, up-to-date on his shots, and FIV/Feline Leukemia Negative. Basically, he is a healthy, happy cat who would love a good home and patiend and kind people to call family. He would get along well with other cats, and has interacted well with my small dog (see avatar).

If anyone has interest in adopting (or even meeting) Dizzy PLEASE PM me!


I am going out of town beginning August 27 and NEED to have a place for Dizzy by that date, as I will be gone for over a month, and cannot afford to hire someone to look after him while I'm gone, nor can I continue to keep him indefinitely.

Mod, please make sticky.
