    I am looking for a mature responsible person (or couple) to take care of my place and my orange tabby cat during the months of May and/or June and/or July. Assignment is for at least one month. You must be a non-smoker (social drinker & occassiobal THC user okay), and must love cats :)

    Help include making sure CJ has clean water and dry/wet food on a daily basis. As well, cleaning the litter box every day is required. CJ is 10 years old, chub but healthy and sociable. My place is small and I like to clean it once/twice a week.
