Our Cat May Have Knocked Up Your Cat

For the last two weeks, the area around Keele Street and Bloor Street West has been plastered with a bizarre leaflet about the life and legacy of the cat Feliche Paradisis-Zoetmulder. It seems that Feliche was a special cat. In July 2008, he was found starving near a cottage in Wasaga Beach by two roommates, Vicky Paradisis and Charissa Zoetmulder. He was then brought back to Toronto, where he lived for four months until he was tragically hit by a car in mid-November.
Feliche wasn’t just a great cat, he was also an unneutered stud who in his short time in the neighbourhood might have done the wild thing with your cat. Yes, Vicky and Charissa are on a hunt for Feliche’s “legacy,” and they’re willing to adopt all of his kittens, if they exist. “We’re just praying it was genetic,” explained Vicky when we asked her about the poster. “Maybe if we had his offspring they would be just as awesome.” Unfortunately, Vicky and Charissa have been unsuccessful so far, but they’re still hoping that Feliche’s kittens are out there. As leaflets go, this one is pretty weird, but we have to admire Vicky and Charissa’s tenacity.
