Adorable Chester!
Hi, I'm Chester and this is my story:
This video was taken on my first night in my new home.
My human thinks I'm the sweetest boy ever! :)
I had been homeless for a while and when a lady pulled into her
driveway I was sitting right in the middle of it playing with some of
the neighborhood kids. They picked me up to take me out of the way and
when the lady came out of the garage she asked the kids who I belonged
to and they told her that I didn't belong to anyone. The lady said she
wanted to help me find my home and took me in to give me food, water and
treats and she called the animal control people to pick me up to see if
they could get me back home. While we waited, I sat in her lap and let
her pet me. I really love attention from people. The animal control
person came and I obediently went into the carrier and was brought in. I
waited there for a week and no one came to get me. I didn't have a
microchip so they didn't know who I belonged to before. Since I didn't
have a home, the lady that found me said she wanted to adopt me. I got
neutered, got my shots and a microchip and headed to my new home. About a
week after moving into my new place, some of the neighbors asked about
me and told my human that I had been wandering around the neighborhood
for about a year and that they had been feeding me sometimes. At the
beginning they said they had seen a pink ribbon collar and a bell around
my neck, but a short time later it started looking dirty and had fallen
off. I wonder why those people hadn't wanted to help me find my home
back then? Maybe my owners before had been looking for me and gave up
after too much time had passed. In the meantime I had to fight for food
and was beat up by cats in the neighborhood. I have scars all over my
body and my ear has a tear in it. I had no shelter from the rain or snow
and I might have been responsible for fathering a lot of homeless and
unhappy kittens since I wasn't neutered. I'm very happy now. I am safe
and warm and get all the food and attention I want. I have some nice cat
friends in my new home to play with and we get along great! Please
don't ignore stray cats when you see them wandering around your
neighborhood. If someone hadn't helped me, I might have been homeless
for the rest of my life. I bet there's someone somewhere that still
thinks of me and wonders what happened to me.
