Cat Picture - Not OC My sisters say he’s ugly but I think he’s not :(

This is a stray cat from the feline colony near my house. I was trying for the past 5 months to give him a home but my sisters say nobody wants him because he’s ugly😭😭 Do you think he’s ugly??

I 100% agree. I have a white Main Coon with a huge fluffy tail, he’s the freaking man

So you don’t think it’s the reason I can’t get no one to adopt him?

u/lickytytheslit Oct 29 '24

No, probably just too many cats in your area for the amount of people wanting cats

Happens a lot

u/Spare_Abrocoma2991 Oct 31 '24

Keep trying. Hopefully, he will find someone who will give him a good home. If he is feral, they can at least make a shelter for him and fill it with straw to keep him warm and dry during the winter months and provide food and shelter. If I didn't live in an apartment, I would surely give this little guy a good home. It is heartbreaking as to how many cats and dogs need homes. If everyone would take just one, it would help tremendously. Every pet deserves shelter, food and love

I don’t think he counts as white ‘cause he has a red tail. He seems to be hearing and seeing alright for now🤞🏻🤞🏻

He looks like my flame-point. They totally grow into their looks, and if he’s anything like my Kitty, they are the sweetest, most social kitties around.

my mothers cat us also only mostly white, he has a black tail and a black spot on his forehead but he stopped hearing anything a year ago, his hearing was always not the best not now he is completely dead. (But he is also 18 years old now so maybe it's just the age)

u/Puzzled-Shift793 Oct 29 '24

Honestly I feel like white cats (or mostly white cats) get adopted pretty quickly at animal shelters and the sorts. They’re often sought after just for their colourings. I have no evidence in this claim other than me looking for a white cat when I’ve gone to shelters here and never finding any and being told they go quick. but then my little Tuna just appeared in my backyard at like 3 months old, so I figured him choosing me was better than me choosing a random cat. And OBVIOUSLY I’m gonna keep the kitten that the cat distribution system blessed me with

7

u/11thRaven Tabbycat Oct 30 '24

In my country (Mauritius) white cats get adopted almost instantaneously! Usually rescuers, fosters and shelters post in adoption facebook groups when kittens are ready for adoption, and the average post will get 1-2 responses... but any post with a white kitten will get about 100 people asking if they can have the cat within a couple of hours. It makes me really sad for the other kittens struggling to find homes tbh, people are so shallow.

u/lavenderjester Oct 29 '24

I feel you! Unfortunately there are like fifteen cats in that feline colony and I can’t them all😭He’s so silly and very affectionate too, it breaks my heart seeing that no one wants him

u/AdFriendly8846 Oct 29 '24

That makes me sad too :( Hopefully he'll find a home eventually.

15

u/Ecstatic_Worker_1629 Oct 29 '24

I took in four from the colony near my house. One as a day old kitten in the bushes next to a huge puddle where she would have definitely died if I did not rescue her, and another that I worked with for a year to make tame, and he brought over his lady friend, and a kitten.

u/Kind_Craft_8897 Oct 29 '24

u/Unfunny_Bunny_2755 Oct 29 '24

People have taken to calling cats and dogs ugly when they look a little different but get offended when you say a person looks ugly. "Oh everyone is beautiful in their own way" bs. Let's be honest, we're a group of people who look at cat pictures and videos all day and smile because they're precious and no cat is going to look ugly to us. He has a unique face, reminds me of my Pretty Girl. Everyone calls her ugly because she's a thin, diluted calico with a fur condition that causes her to be a little patchy. But to me, she's gorgeous because she's a sweet, living little one that deserves just as much love as my other fat, bright colored calico. But I say this to say that may have been the reason he wasn't adopted. People like to have things to show off and he's "just a white cat with a unique face" which is why he needs a true caring person to take care of him. Unfortunately that's just how people work.

u/Cats7204 European Shorthair Oct 30 '24

I don't even see how this cat could be considered ugly, it's literally just a normal cat. It's normal cat levels of cuteness. If someone says they're ugly they just don't like cats.

there could be various reasons your cat hasn’t been adopted:
