Stray Kitty Sightings! UPDATE on Dillo

It's apparently kitty "love time" around our neighborhood - the strays are out in force! I've seen Dillo and Sweet & Sour a few times this week. Last night, Dillo hung around outside and managed to get fed by not only me but my neighbors as well. He's just so darn cute!


A little offcenter but he wouldn't stop running for the camera like it was food.


My neighbor and the kitty. She also feeds him and keeps referring to him as a "she" regardless of his jibbly-bits. Nevertheless, he still likes her.


All tuckered out.


Edited to add: Dillo is currently doing his best to find himself a home. He got in my apartment twice when we weren't looking. He also got in my downstairs neighbors' apartment (The CHinese guys from Sweet & Sour Kitty's story).


This is George.
Dillo ran into his apartment and George chased after him saying "You do not have permission! Go outside!"
To which DIllo of course paid no attention.
So George dragged a piece of paper for the cat to chase and go back outside.
Dillo responded by venturing down George's hallway.
Finally, George pushed Dillo in the butt saying "I'm sorry!" over and over until the cat was outside.

Sitting on the deck outside, we all just started cracking up.

I wish you were closer than Oklahoma - Dillo could come live in my barn any day! He is a cutie!

He's sitting outside my door right now, as a matter of fact. I feed him and he keeps coming around. Imagine that. But he's got ringworm around his ears so as soon as I can catch him (read: borrow a trap from animal control & set it out) then he'll be going off to the shelter.

"Jibbly-bits"?

I tried to figure this one out and gave it up as some sort of Oklahoma slang.

Then, I thought Jilly is pretty smart - bound to be something more to it than that.

So I broke the expression down and looked up the parts:

jib - the projecting arm of a crane

bit - a small piece or quantity of anything

So, I guess jibbly-bits are small pieces behind a projecting arm. Hey, that makes sense!

Face you crack me up - by jibbly bits I mean the fact that he's a he and able to love.

Editted to add: Okay, fine! Jibbly its make a boy kitty more likely to go out SEEKING love! I assume gelded (er, neutered) boy kitties could love but most are just fat and lazy.

Couldn't he love without the jibbly bits?

You mean to tell me if you don't have jibbly bits then you can't love?

Man! What a rip off!

UPDATE! After realiziing "Dillo" was not only infested with fleas but also ringworm-positive, I decided to take him to Animal Control. As a stray he could pick up FIV or a number of things. Plus he was intact and skinny. Stillwater has a massive feral cat problem - we don't need any more kittens.

The students should be returning soon and that will hopefully up his chances at adoption.
