Is this a face, or what? So pensive. So expressive. If Phineas and I spoke the same language, I'm sure he'd have quite a story to tell. See the clipped ear? That's typically the sign of a cat living in a feral cat colony. A feral cat has had little or no contact with people, therefore is unsocialized and fearful of humans. But Phineas is not fearful of people, he's a love -- he nudges, he purrs and sidles right up to anyone and everyone. And, if he's out of his kitty condo and someone sits down on the floor, Phineas goes right for the lap, and that's where he stays until he is encouraged to move. Best guess he was a stray who was trapped, neutered, ear-tipped and released. But, smart guy that he is, he managed to get caught again, taken in and then brought to WARL where he is just hanging out waiting!
