I have family in Boone. I'll see if they will spread his story around.

Tighty rocks a diaper, but it's not a miracle worker. His aim? Questionable. His attitude? Unbothered. Because of the occasional mess, he can't go to rental homes.

Awww, poor guy seems to have some issues with his bladder. As sad as it is, I imagine this might be the reason why he's still there :( Hopefully someone with the ability to care for him comes along soon, he deserves it โค๏ธ

It's interesting that they won't let him go to a rental home.

But also, cat diapers are ridiculous. I have yet to find one that fits properly, my elderly cat always gets one or both of her legs stuck when she rises from a nap

He probably pees on the carpet quite a bit. I could see a tenant being told to get rid of the cat or get evicted.

I guess my experience is that many apartments don't have carpet through much more than bedrooms now. Heck, one I looked at yesterday has zero carpeting, and this is a place with very cold winters.

My young male cat has a large 6x6 kennel that he goes into while I'm out, and he doesn't even pee on anything, but I guess most people wouldn't be willing to do that. (he just constantly tries it on with that elderly cat I mentioned above and that's not good for anyone lol)

Yeah but does your young cat have to wear a diaper? This cat seemingly has incontinence problems.

My elderly cat that I mentioned in the original comment I made, that you replied to, does indeed wear a diaper

Little homie needs to lay off the 'nip if he's going to pursue a modeling career

I thought so too! I hope he gets adopted soon.

You with the concrete floors! Your cat is here! Call them!

Why would anyone see this beautiful kitty and not want to adopt him?

It has a flower on its head!
