I posted about him/her a week or so ago. (Let's just call the cat a 'him'
for ease of typing and reading). He ran down into a storm drain so I
couldn't get to him after he was crossing a busy street a couple of blocks
down from my apartment complex and I had to hit the brakes when he ran out
in front of my car. Then I followed him and tried to coax him towards me...
wasn't having any of it.

Since then I've seen him wandering around through my apartment complex and
also crossing (a couple of blocks down) the side street that runs by the
side of my apartment complex. Again, another busy street.

The cat appears to be fairly young, maybe 9 months old. (Heh, I'm no judge
of a cat's age.) He looks thin but he's not emaciated. Someone is feeding
him. But letting him roam all around a busy cross-street area isn't a great
idea. And it's cold outside and only going to get colder.

Purrs for the orange & white spotted kitty to be safe. Thanks.

I'll second the purrs (OK, third since Matthew beat me to it) for the little guy.
