With respect to humane society-type organizations, the kitty will likely have ~72 hours or so to be adopted after it is deemed adoptable before it is put down. The shelters are simply too overcrowded.

You'd probably have pretty good success listing the kitty on Craig's list, as free to a good home.

Just my $.02 worth.
Agreed. It's abandoned, not feral. It won't have long to live once it's in a shelter.

The best pets are the ones that pick you, not the other way around. If nothing else, find a no-kill shelter and donate some $ for spaying. Better yet, open your heart and your door for your new best friend.

Think about this: most ferals are either FIV or leukemia positive. Your duty is to catch them & take to your local vet period. Their fate is mostly determined immediately. Those lucky ones are gifts. Can you please find them a home w/ a mom willing to pet them on the belly when they roll over. Got heart or not?
