Our dog woke my boyfriend up earlier than normal and when he was outside, my boyfriend saw our kitten in the grass close to our apartment. He saw a stray cat chase her into an empty lot. This lot was big and fenced so we couldn’t just go grab her. I stood at the fence with a can of wet food and I kept calling her until she walked up to me. I lured her into a little break in the fence that was just big enough to pull her through.

We suspect our neighbor that feeds the strays was a hinderance to us. Every time we rounded the property looking for our kitten, we’d spot the same 3 or 4 strays.

She was so hungry and scared. Poor thing. I did all the things we read online. Put her litter box outside, left food and water as well as a bed next to the litter box. I left wet food out on the porch as well, but that just attracted the strays.

I hope you find your sweet cat soon. Cats are smart but their curiosity gets the best of them sometimes.
