Did anyone adopt a gray kitten in 2019?

Searching Milwaukee May 24, 2026
This is a long shot, but did anyone here adopt a gray cat from the MKE Humane Society on September 27, 2019? I posted about this quite awhile ago, but hit a dead end so I’m trying again for new leads. Long story short, one of our cats gave birth to 5 kittens back in 2019. We (my spouse and I) found good homes for them all, except one. Unfortunately, the woman we gave one male kitten to surrendered him very shortly after we gave him to her (despite our specific request that he be given back to us, and NOT surrendered, if any issues arose). Sleuthing led us to the info that the kitten (Mooney) ended up at the MKE Humane Society. They were able to tell us he was adopted out from them on September 27, 2019. They won’t give us any other info though, for privacy reasons (which makes sense). We don’t want to take Mooney from his new home, we just want to know he’s actually ok and let his new family know that if for some reason they can’t keep him or need support, we want to help. And it’s important to us that we are able to verify it’s actually him. This might sound kind of crazy to some (I can already imagine the comments along the lines of “it’s been years, let it go”), but cats are really important to us. My spouse specifically has described “feeling like a grieving mother.” They think about this kitten all the time, even after all these years, and I want closure for my spouse. These pictures are from when he was a kitten obviously — Mooney would be fully grown now. He is a gray male cat with a white mark on his lower belly. If you think you might have him or have any info, I would love to hear from you. We periodically try to post about him to see if we drum up any new leads. Thanks for taking the time to read this. submitted by [comments]
