	Well, I have had a lot of responses from people asking me to post about the 
kitten should more info. become available.  Seems a lot of people saw the 
kitten and worried about her (confirmed as a "her" BTW).  Well, a volunteer 
from Good Mews works on campus and he and I (as well as my co-worker who asked 
me to post this) walked back to the site of the "kitten sighting," and lo and 
behold, there she was!  The volunteer knows she is female due to her coloring 
(tortoise-shell, only apparent in females).  He approached her and she ran 
off.  She came back quickly after he backed away.  Turns out she is sitting 
right next to one of the stadium's steam pipes, and it is likely that she is 
enjoying its wamth.  That explains why she has been in the same place for so 
long.  When the volunteer approached her, she moved with ease!
	We then walked over to the Burge deck where a large family of cats lives.  A 
Tech employee leaves cat food out for them, and my co-worker took some for the 
kitten.  When it was placed at her pipe (she ran away and came back again 
after we backed off), she gobbled it up hungrily.  It is probably the first 
food she's had in awhile.  
	We would still like to catch her.  We know food will lure her now.  I know at 
least one person was interested in adopting her (met her while we were out 
searching for her the first time).  If you read this, send me your number and 
I will call you if we get her.  If we do get her and she is properly adopted, 
I'll post again.

-Ashley
(who's very happy to see that so many people were so concerned about a little 
kitty!)
