Just 5 days, that's what I have to find a home. I don't need a home for myself, but my best friend my cat "Buddy".
Having traveled through Iraq for the last 14 months I've used pet-sitters to come to our home and check on his needs, and I don't think it's been good for him.
I'm crazy about my Buddy, I adopted him from the pound when he was just 4 months old. He was a gift for my wife, but he seemed to gravitate towards me (hence the name Buddy).
I leave for Afghanistan on July 5th and I may be gone anywhere from five to twelve months this time; my wife will be living in China while I'm gone.
I'm desperately trying to find Buddy a Foster home for the time I'm gone, and I would certainly cover his expenses and pay $100 a month for his food (not that he could ever eat that much).
He's a very gentle cat, and enjoys being around people. Most cats are loners, but Buddy's a people person. Please email me or call if your even remotely interested. My home is in Bellevue's Somerset neighborhood.

I'm sure you will find a sitter. How about a grandparent?
Hi Michael, If I lived in Bellevue, he would be welcome at my house. I just wrote a post about my cat, Fluffy. Contact some Bellevue Rainers directly to see if anyone would be willing to help out or they may know someone who would help. Let us know what happens!
Perhaps go through all the Activer Rainers in the Bellevue area and send out a personal note -- hope you find him a home --
Every cat needs a home, good luck! I'm a bit too far away myself.
Buddy has been picked up today by a very nice lady affiliated with the animal shelter, so he has a home away from home. I got a lot of offers and appreciate them all; I was even contacted by Q13 News which offered to come to my home and do a spot to help us find him a home. I was speachless.
Now I got to get packed and ready, thanks for your concerns.
I am glad he found a good home! Good luck Buddy!
Good luck to you and Buddy both! I'm glad Buddy is being looked after. Take care of yourself now, too!
Cheers,
Robin
