UPDATE.

Managed to lure him out of his hole with some solid white albacore tuna...



Checkers was a little to small for me to get in there and tell if it's a boy or girl.
But not to small to find a home for.
My friends cat Monty just died, and turns out Checkers looks just like him. He came over last night and took Checkers a couple blocks over to his new home. I got really attached in the couple hours i had him, and it was hard to see him go. He purred and fell asleep in my lap within 20 minutes of getting him in the house.
Hopefully he has a long and easy life.

Awesome!   Lucky kitteh!     

Good on ya Corey !

Well done..................

if my dog didn't literally try to eat him, i would have kept him.

Excellent!  Glad it is safe & warm now!

Our boxer/shepherd mix chases & plays with out little 2lb kitten.  Even though sometimes it looks like he's about to become a snack

Great story. Congrats on the snatch and transfer. One happy cat. Good for you and your efforts. That's 100 animal karma bonus points for you!

My dog has a jihad for all felines. Must be something from a previous life. Every day when I walk her and we go by a place where she has encountered a cat she goes nuts looking for it. Some of those encounters were a year or two ago but she still remembers! A house or two before we get to the spot she will start pulling on the lead like a freight train to hurry up and get there. And if I say the words "where's that kitty cat?" she'll damn near jerk the lead right out of my hand. Cracks me up every time!

yea, our dog indy just isn't socialized very well. he has a problem with all small things that move on their own. not to mention jealousy. we tried for a couple of hours and the dog literally just couldnt stop trying to eat the cat.

the kitten was pretty cool about the experiment, but i didn't think a stressful life of avoiding being eaten alive was what it deserved.

karma points are good, i can always use them.
i'll cash them in when i go to get a kitten of my own. hopefully it turns out to be just as cool of a cat.

  

 

So Checkers lives out side, now that the K9 has stood his ground? Maybe you can find a friend to take him in. Better than sending him off to the pound.
