Found in Crown Heights Lost Russian Blue Cat

You are right. I made the correction. He is the gray one recently listed by Helloon. Thanks,

I have not taken him to a vet yet. Unfortunately the microchipping is a long shot but worth the try. He does have soft fur. I am not very techno savy but the second link should work http://www.flickr.com/groups/lookingforahome/

The flickr group is called looking for a home. And OpossumQueen kindly brought his picture into the blog. Thanks.

Thank you Opossum Queen and FlexiChick, you both live up to your names. It seems Ali is quite the wanderer and this is the second time he was lost! I hope Ali stays home this time. He was an extremely good house guest. Now he needs a collar. :P Thank you for all your help with the postings.

I was wondering last night as I was going to sleep how Ali could have gotten so far. I think he crossed Eastern Parkway at night when it wasn't so busy and began wandering down Bedford Ave. looking in the shop windows and saying hello to everyone. People thought he was cute so they pet him and he followed after them looking for more affection and looking in more shop windows. Then he got hungry and went sniffing and looking into garbage like the street cats do so that meant he needed to go into the neighborhood and somehow got onto Park Place. He kept walking down Park Place looking for food and getting a bit here and there (he moved about a block a day) when he came upon Brower Park and decided to sun himself. He watched a basketball game and the kids playing in the playground. He thought that was fun. Then he got hungry again. An old wise street cat who lived in the park told him to look for food on the next block. Other street cats told him that a kind old lady used to feed them in a backyard on Prospect Place. They told him to get there he had to go into my neighbor's driveway which leads into out into our backyards and her backyard. But the kind old lady had moved away. The backyards were beautiful and offered shelter under so many bushes so he began looking around and came into my yard.... "And now you know the rest of the story."
