Meet "Runt" Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce "The Chamber Cat"

 Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce

101 Town Hall Drive
Kill Devil Hills, NC 27048
(252) 441-8144

The Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce was founded in 1975 as a 501(c)6 non-profit organization. With close to 1,000 members, the Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce represents businesses in Currituck, Dare & Hyde counties. 

The Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce is at the forefront as an information source for anything Outer Banks. Maybe, that is why Runt chose to adopt the Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce as her home & her people. She is an intelligent Cat.

Runt was an Outer Banks Feral Feline, but just as the Outer Banks has changed over the years, so too has Runt. Runt is now part of the Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce staff.

Years ago, Runt chose the Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce building as her home & claimed the underneath crawl space as her very own. Runt even decided to have a litter of kittens beneath the Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce building.

When Runt made the Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce staff aware of her kittens, this is where Runt's life-changing adventures began. Fortunately, all of Runt's kittens were adopted into loving Outer Banks families.

Runt took a particular liking to Karen, Cindy, and the whole Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce staff. The rest is history; Karen & Cindy opened the doors to the Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce building, and Runt walked in as an official staff member of the Outer Banks Chamber of Commerce.

Runt has black & white markings, much like you will find in the Pampered Pets Guide, "OBX Pet Stories and Local Pet Celebrities'." Some examples are, Camellia & Kevin at The Elizabethan Gardens, "A Cats Paradise Home."  Also, the black & white ghost cat at the Cape Hatteras Lighthouse, "The Feline Ghost that Haunts the Outer Banks."

Could all of these black & white, once feral Outer Banks cats be descendants of the Lost Colony Cats? You decide. Please see: "The Lost Colony's Cats," and "Have the Lost Colony Cats been Found?"
