She belonged to a neighbor, but the neighbor moved away and left her. He said he’d be back Thanksgiving weekend to try and get her, but now he’s ignoring my texts, and he’d already mentioned ‘at this point you can just have her’ in a previous conversation.

It’s getting into below freezing temperatures here, so we built a little cat ramp up to the second story and now she lives in the house with us. I’m hesitant to say she’s ours just yet, but it’s looking a lot like that’s not up to us anymore 🤣

Edit: Neighbor replied this morning… it’s official! 😭😻

    Honestly, save the text where he said she’s yours, and I think you’re good to go.

    Honestly, keeping her seems like it’s in her best interest no matter what. You’re awesome for taking care of her! Maybe keep her inside now with a collar and take her to the vet to give more legal cover that she was abandoned in case the neighbor comes by in a year demanding her back? Enjoy your kitty…

    I’m totally judging you for being a good human. Thanks for that!

    I think we’re gonna need more photos. Just to be sure she’s settling only all warm and snuggly.
