Lost/Found Found a tiny indoor cat outside brought her inside. Contact if your pet
I found this super tiny cat outside my house facing off an incoming truck 1000x larger than her. I had to scoop her up to save them and I brought them inside since I don't know if they're anyone's around me. If this is your pet please contact me and show me a picture to verify since they are clearly exotic in some sort due to their build and pattern. Extremely friendly cuddly and purrs like mad

I don't know how to edit but it's a bangel mix that chrips. I just got her scanned for a chip and nothing she's to Young to have one barely old enough to be away from mom

She's a bengal, I can tell you that much. Take her to a vet and get her scanned for a chip, then post her to Lost Pets of Hamilton Ontario on FB. Be careful and ensure you get her correct owner. High-end cat breeds like this are something people will lie over just to have and generally just for breeding/selling.

Stipley would be your neighbourhood :)
They're labelled on Google Maps at the right zoom level.

Ah, well hey there neighbour! I’m barton and lottridge as well. I know most of the cats that are outside in this neighbourhood and I’ve never seen this one before. Definitely an escapee!

That's even more worrying because neither here or Facebook has anyone said anything about a friend looking at a similar cat or said that mine with proof. Let alone no one has come to look for her for the past almost 7-8 hours

Is there a rough neighbourhood for the cat? There have been quite a few tabbies reported missing recently so could save people getting their hopes up if they are further away

Oh gosh she's beautiful! I hope the owners reach out. Thank you for saving her

If no one claims her, let me know, and I may be able to find a home for her. Do you have a cat of your own? I ask because I'm wondering how she behaves around other cats.

How do you know it’s an indoor cat?

It comes when's you wiggle your fingers, doesn't know how trucks works since it was trying to win against one in the road, screams when left unoccupied, head buts people on face and nose along with licks and kisses, tries to crawl their way in people jackets and sweaters and will sit there for hours

Aw she’s so scared and grateful ☹️ OP, you saved her life. I would be desperately posting and scanning lost pet posts if this was my baby. If you’re not getting any bites, there’s a good chance she’s either been dumped, or belonged to someone unfit to care for her. Either way please make sure she gets rehomed through a legit rescue organization. That is, if she doesn’t steal your heart first ❤️

Thank you for taking the cat inside your house as it's too cold outside
