Just a little something special… (5/13/2010)

Comment ID #21259

So, I don’t know if anyone will care about this, but I have to talk about it, regardless… I went downstairs during a rain shower this morning at about 10 AM, and opened the window. Had my breakfast and such, and then I hear meowing outside… I go to see what it is, and I find 4 kittens out there, in the cold rain, meowing for their mother, who wasn’t to be found… Now I couldn’t bring all 4 of them into the house, so I put the three largest ones in a small sheltered spot next to the neighbor’s house, and brought the smallest (And cutest >w<;) one inside… Held it for about an hour, so it could get used to the surroundings (it cried a bit, especially during mid-carrying). Afterwards, I brought it downstairs into the kitchen, and when I set it on the table, it started looking around for something… Not knowing exactly what it was, I tried to give it some warm whole milk… Sure enough, it practically attacked the dish (MADE ME GO “D’AWWWWWW~<3). After a bit of letting it roam and lay down, the rain stopped. Sadly enough, we currently have no room for anymore cats, seeing as we have two so far. At that, making sure it wasn’t raining anymore, I proceeded to rejoin it with it’s kin. |3 I tell you what, I took some photos with the kitten, and I’ll say. I had a moment with that little guy. ^w^

Said pictures need uploading badly. I bet I’m not the only one who wants to see them.

It makes me sad when animals are mistreated and left homeless…

James. You made me smile :)

My sister actually got her cat because it’s mother abandoned it, it had a horrible throat infection, and although we dealt with that and it’s now healthy (and a bit fat) almost two years later, it still isn’t able to meow.

Here’s a gallery, in fact, of me with the kitten. -w-

Right here.

YES, MY UGLY MUG COMES WITH THE PHOTOS, and being out in the rain makes your hair all messy.

If you click on the picture and keep clicking, it almost looks like it’s animated! :D

That’s so awesome ;___; Sorry that you can’t keep them, I hope they find new homes~!

I’m not sure quite yet. We MAY keep the one you saw in the photo, as both my mom and I like it. However, if we do, we’d have to send one of our current cats to wherever they go to be sent to a new home. Not sure if I want to make that “exchange” or not, though, seeing as it’d be unfair to our current cat(s).

Why not try this… Look for a new home for your cat, and if you can find one, make the “exchange”. If not keep your current cats and look for a home for the kitten.

Never send them to a shelter. If they don’t find new homes for them fast enough, they put them down :(

Indeed. That’s what I was thinking about doing.

Depends on the city and the shelter, but yes, overall it’s a bad move to put them in a shelter, even if they do get adopted (which is actually highly likely for kittens) they are likely to develop respiratory diseases while there. I get to treat them.. it’s sad…

Good news, people. My mom has made some calls (After some “motivation” by me) and has contacted a place that will take the kittens. ^^

D’aaaaaaaaaaw~! I love kittens and cats and puppies and dogs~! Too bad I’m allergic to cats. I’m trying to find a breed that doesn’t cause the itchy eyes and arms. Tae’s cat from when she came to Orlando didn’t do much to me. My arms were a bit itchy for a bit though. No watery or itchy eyes though. So that’s good.
