[ In a handwriting that balances on a fine line between neat and messy, the following is written: ]

Hello.

I have two distinctly separate requests, and I urge you to remember that these are separate when you read this.

Firstly, I am looking for a cat. One with a particularly charming button nose, splendid toe beans, and a mewl that could pawsitively melt any heart. While I understand that describes virtually all felines, I thought I'd see if anyone had seen such a cat around.

Secondly—and separately—I am looking for volunteers to participate in a research study. An exceptional candidate would be sturdy and healthy, even better if the candidate has experience overcoming various poisons and toxins. There are risks, such as loss of life, but ideally my research and my own magic-slash-dreamotion energy would prevent death. So ultimately, the risk is minimal. Most likely. Please let me know if you'd be willing to volunteer.

[ Yes. But it's better for the feline residents of the town if he expounds on that. ]

Inexperienced, rather. Cats are independent, and therefore have a need to establish themselves within their territory. They want to know where everything is and where they stand with those they meet. If you've been interacting with cats in their space, you are unaware how they’ll respond when relocated.

[ And that may result in such bad behaviors as posturing and hissing... not like he knows anything about that. ]

Letting a cat come to you and bond in their own way is essential. But you must allow the same consideration in letting cats get to know each other individually.
