kitty would be hiding from its owner. The new customer continued,

Heartsford. So I want you to go on down to Heartsford and find my
kitty, and, you know, take care of it, you know what I mean.”

pets and would be perfectly happy to take care of it and give it a
home, feed it etc.

you get paid. Why wouldn’t you wanna get paid? Now here’s how you get
paid: once you’ve done the thing, you know, the thing you gotta do, go
to the telephone booth outside your apartment and call 854-0702, then
tell them ‘never sleep with the fish on Saturday night’ and the money
will get wired to your account.”
