Hi!

It seems i find all the cats...

anyways, there was a cute fluffy black cat on the road, on the right lane just before the entrance to Sp 14 (in front of Spinneys let´s say) he was jsut lying there and cars were passing by...i stopped, thought maybe it was injured. Tried to catch it but it got scared and only managed to run to the sandy part away from the road...

If it might be yours or you know how to help....i´ll try to go later see if it´s still ther and try to catch it but it seemed frightened...

I have seen this fluffy black cat twice before but that was beginning of January of this year. First time he was in the Parking of Spinneys (the main big one) and he was going from under a car to another and the 2nd time he was standing also in Spinneys parking next to a car near the sand. I always have food in my car and both times I tried to approach him but he always runaway. I don't know what is the best way to catch him as it seems he is not interested in food if it is offered by humans face to face :( I have work everyday from 8am to 7pm but I am available after that for any help needed in case you found the cat or catched him, since I saw him from more than one month now and you just saw him, that means he lives in that area near the Spinneys so I will go there tomorrow after 7 and see if I can find him. It might be actually useful to ask the waiters of shakespeare if they saw the cat, maybe they are feeding him? If you managed to catch him in any way, please give me a buzz on eight eight fourhundred eight eight, I have a spare room where I can keep him and I am sure I can try to convince one of the vets to keep him until we find a home for him. I am in Springs 2.

Where do you live? Springs 14? I´m here. But i need to wait for Dh to get home, which can be fairly late.... The cat was sort of like behind the guard´s box on that sandy part. I´ll go have a look and see if it´s still there but then what will vets be open now? There's an emergency vet number, if you call al barsha vets and they're not open the emergency number should come up... sorry would help myself but I'm in oz, and just called someone in springs to see if they could go but they're at Dubai Mall!! <em>edited by AdviceSeeker on 15/02/2011</em>

I have a cat box we can put it in but I'm by myself as DH is in Saudi. Hang on a sec and I'll see if I can get someone to come round and babysit.

hi! hit by a car is my guess...it ran away just a couple of meters, with effort, and just laid there....it didn´t move any further....i was with my toddler in the car getting home, cars piling behind me....so thought the best thing was to get home, and go when my husband get´s home and can stay with son.... I don´t know how to catch it though...

Do you think it was hit by a car? Was it able to move OK or clearly injured?
