Mister

February 2, 2011

slytoffcntr says: Mister was a kitten acquired by the family through the usual neighborhood means… someone needed to get rid of some kittens. He was about two months in most of these pictures, and full of himself. He would help me in the garden in the mornings... digging, hunting... exploring. He kept getting stuck in the tree, but after the second day of the same tree I let him find his way down. He generally would follow me around the yard and play with whatever I was working on. Sadly, Mister came up missing this last summer. It's a risk you take if you let your cat go outdoors, a lesson we learned the hard way.

What a spectacular kitty, and a great model! I finally had to just make a blind guess for a favorite picture. They're all SO good!

Oh I could just kiss him to death.
I have a Ginger Cat and I can't keep my hands off of him.
Something special about Ginger Kitties, they have the greatest personalities.
Cute Cute Cute!!!

I'm so sad that Mister was lost; he shows a wonderful personality and of course, very handsome orange kitty

He reminds me of my beloved ginger boy who also disappeared. I don't let my kitties out anymore. It's too heartbreaking to lose them

As you have sadly learned, it's not a rish worth taking! All kitties should live indoors at all times - it's much the safer lifestyle for them. Prayers that this handsome little guy is safe somewhere!

I can see why you loved taking him outside with you -- his personality and curiosity really shows out here.

I came back for another eyeful of sunshine only to read that Mister is GONE! If he wasn't neutered, perhaps he was just following his natural instincts and there will be a bunch of new kitties out there, many with a touch of orange. Keep looking!

So sorry he wandered off....I never let my kitties out - it would break my heart to lose them! Maybe he found a happy home somewhere else. You can always hope!

I like to think that someone took your little orange tabby in and is giving Mister a good home.

So hard to pick a favourite as every photo is just adorable! Here's hoping, like Lacey, that someone has found Mister and is giving him all the love in the world. You must miss him so much. I think he should be renamed - Mister Gorgeous and Handsome!

I am sorry for your loss. It is heart-breaking to loose such a special kitty! I also hope someone has given him a good home....

What a handsome kitty. Sorry he was lost. I feel guilty sometimes at keeping my kitties inside. Thank you for reminding me about why I should.

Xero - 13 years, 3 months ago

Looks almost exactly like my cat Felix I had when I was in grade school! He was an outdoor cat as well.

I have lost several male cats (well, neutered) cats because they were unsupervised when they went outside; it is just heartbreaking; so, so sorry!!!!!

Losing your "Mister" must have been a difficult lesson to learn for you. He was so handsome! Beautiful markings! I am sorry for your lose, but hopefully, your next cattie will be a housecat and he will be neutered!

What a Prince!! such a tough decision - if they like the outdoors - it is good for them. Of course to wander off and lose him is sad. Let's hope he is somewhere safe. Thanks for sharing!

He was so beautiful. Such a cute little character from these photos. What a sad shame he went missing :(

Just wondering, would you lock your child up 24/7 to keep him/her safe? My cat is kept in at night, and is allowed to go out during the day. I love him too much to keep him caged up. I've never lost a cat yet and I'm pretty old.
