We found a kitteh today, just sitting there in the middle of the road in the countryside, a few kilometers from my parents' place. We feared that he'd been hit by a car, but this turned out not to be the case. He'd been attacked by some animal - the vet said it was probably another cat. His nose had been cut open and his rear paws were badly bruised, requiring some stitches. He was also in a shock. He's sleeping now, but it'll probably take a week or two before he gets better.
I saw this this morning and laughed very hard. I showed Ikkyu2. He informed me, "That's a pallas cat." And then he allowed himself to smile. It's very important to correctly classify jokes before responding in a humorous manner. :-)
essexjan: we can't keep him, as we already have a cat and this flat isn't really big enough for two. It shouldn't be hard to find him a new home, though.
