People never cease to amaze or frustrate me.
Yesterday evening Iwas outside letting a little Boxer Pup that I am watching for the next couple of days do her buisness and I could hear this cat SCREAMING in the bushes across the road a ways.
I scooped up the pup and walked towards the sound.
Everytime I would talk the screams would get louder and more intense. I didn't want to head into the bush with the small pup (or alone for that matter due to bears, coyotes and so on)
Standing roadside I made the universal kitty calling chirpy noise to get a better idea exactly where the cries were coming from...
I could see something moving towards me in the bushes, it was the kitten.
The sweetest most cuddly little orange tabby came RUNNING towards me purring and screaming all at the same time.
I bent down and picked him up and walked him to the house.
Immediately ( as the rule for all strays and drops offs) I placed him in the bathroom, and got him in a flea bath. (just incase)
I can't believe people, why would you think dropping off a little kitten in the bush is a good thing? Adult cats have a hard time surviving in the wild around here due to the predators they have and we have many. Why do it to a kitten
anyways the little guy is safe and sound here for now, try to get him into a vet for an overall health check ( but he seems perfectly fine) and set up a neuter date for him soon. Hopefully a cuddly boy like him will find a home quickly.
I took a few pics, I'm working on uploading them now to show you all how friggen adorable this little guy is.
I'll post them shortly.
