Description
Found a young female black cat with white spot on her throat. I believe that she is unspayed. She's friendly but seems very skinny. We've given her food and shelter while trying to determine if she has owners/find her a new home as we can't adopt her ourselves.

Update/Recap: On July 30th, a young female black cat with white spot on her throat wandered into our yard. She's friendly, but had no collar and we've been unable to locate an owner after putting up 'found cat' signs and posting on various social media sites (FB/Nextdoor/SeeClickFix). I've also scanned pet finder site to see if she matches any lost cat postings with no luck. I've had her scanned for a microchip at the vet and a cursory exam puts her at about 1 year old and just over 6 lbs. She also appears to have not been spayed.
Since we haven't had any luck locating existing owners, and we are unable to adopt her ourselves because our current cat does not play well with other, we're looking for anyone willing and able to adopt her. My 5 yr old son and I interact with her frequently and she remains friendly with no signs of aggression (aside from typical cat playfullness) or particularly destructive tendencies, (full disclosure: she scratches at the rug a bit, but it shows no damage.) We really would like to get her adopted out or at least find her a safe alternate foster home in the meantime ASAP. She's had to be sequestered in my studio to keep her away from our own cat and we'll be having some work done on our house soon and I'm worried she'll turn neurotic from the combination of being confined and all the commotion. (For the record, she is not currently acting neurotic in anyway.)
I also have a litter box, round carpeted cat house and mouse-chase toy she enjoys that you can have gratis!
Please share and help us find her a forever home!!!
