Emmy the cat is doing very well. No one has come forward as the owner. My brother is taking Emmy to the vet on Monday. My brother is keeping Emmy if no owner information is on her microchip (if Emmy has a microchip at all)

That is so kind. I shared your comment with him. I’ll let you know what he says.

It’s a little chip implanted between the shoulder blades of a cat or dog with the owner’s information on it. It can be read with a scanning device, in an event like this one.

No, my brother is gonna keep the cat. She’s all set.

My brother is gonna keep it if there’s no micro chip. He’s named it Emmy already.

I found a sick pigeon once and took it to the bird sanctuary/rescue on the UWS. I called to check up on it the next day. It died. I felt better knowing that in its last moments it wasn’t alone, cold, or hungry. You did the right thing for that bird.

It took me a second, lol

Yup, my brother saw your comment and texted me that will be the cat’s name. Thank you!

Yes he is! My brother is awesome.

My brother will keep the kitty if there’s no microchip w/ owner info.

Thank you. Dudley was my best friend. Then he became my daughter’s best friend/idol. He had capybara energy, not an aggressive bone in his body. I like to think he’s my childhood dog’s best friend now and with his first owner on the other side.

He does!

My brother has other cats, so he can’t let her out yet. The vet (Dr. Kirk of Queens Midway Animal Hospital, he is a living saint) doesn’t have any appointments until Monday. The kitty is eating/drinking/pooping regularly. My brother sent me pics today and kitty looks better than last night.

My nana would send over baked chicken (we are vegetarians) and my mom would feed the chicken to my parakeets. Alf and Alfalfa (our parakeets) lived until they were 17/18 years old.

You’re very kind. I think there are a lot of people like my brother in the world, the nasty people just get more press.

Oh he’s keeping her if she isn’t chipped. Our whole family has only had pets that were strays or in other situations where they needed a home. I just had to put down my 15 year old dog, my dying neighbor asked me to take him when he was 7. This cat found the right people. We already love her.

My brother got on a queens bound M train at 23rd Ely Ave yesterday evening around 5:10pm. He thinks the cat was already on the train. Other passengers were feeding it chicken and my brother gave it water. He scooped her up in and put it in his book bag. The cat is very sweet and friendly. No collar. He intends to clean the cat up tonight and find out if it’s a boy or girl. He’s also going to take it to the vet next Monday to see if it’s chipped.
