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!) __________________________ Ashley Gigandet Olympic/Paralympic Planner Georgia Tech - Home of the 1996 Olympic Village "Whether we build it or not, they're coming!"
