An update on Bebe the cat
An update on Bebe the cat from Melanie West:
As some of you may remember, about 2 months ago, Bebe escaped from his carrier when my sister stopped here in Richmond on her way from NYC to Florida. Bebe has been an outdoor cat for most of his life and has, thus far, resisted all attempts to catch him. I’ve been monitoring Bebe’s whereabouts through the neighbors (most sightings have been around the 2500 – 2800 blocks of Grace and E. Franklin Streets), however, there have been no reported sightings of Bebe in the last week. If you have seen, fed, pet or in any way cared for Bebe, please let me or my sister know. My email is melkielb@yahoo.com and my sister’s email is meshellemail@yahoo.com. I can also be reached at 402-8093.
