This person’s compassion is far exceeded by her stupidity.

My sort of hero.

Back in ‘68, when we living in an apt complex overlooking the Pacific ocean, I remember saving a litter of pink kittens. After a dramatic afternoon bathing them until the blood from the flea bites finally washed away, leaving beautiful white kittens, we then spent some days finding homes for totally wild, and totally wonderful, white kittens. It’s a good memory and our own five cats didn’t get infected with fleas.

I remember a rich hero friend in New Jersey who found a cat with distemper. She couldn’t bring it into her home with her own cat, so she rented the apartment next to her own and cared for it there.

Clapping for every hero out there who saves an animal’s life.

Made my day. You just don’t see this kind of stuff anymore in the news.

article: "The vet told the family the cat was about 9 weeks old, feral, had two types of worms and was covered in fleas"

"That will be $1200 dollars, please. No checks; Cash or credit only", said the vet.

Her children will never forget “seeing Mommy save that black kitten on the freeway.” The tale will be told and retold several different ways over the next generation or two.
Hope she got herself a tetanus shot soon after.

We have two cats and a small dog.

But, a couple of weeks ago a 3 month old kitten was crying her head off in the neighbor’s driveway. My wife outside in our adjacent driveway, and called to the kitty.

The kitty ran right to her. She was skin and bones and smelly, but otherwise okay, and NOT feral. She was either lost or more likely abandoned. Super affectionate. We checked for a chip . . . none. She play fights and snuggles with our two cats, and plays with the dog.

Cats and kittens are good at find people to better their lives when necessary.

We have three cats and a small dog.

That was wonderful of the woman to save the cat. I have rescued about 40 cats in the past, getting them into homes or non-kill shelters. I didn’t get any while driving, however.

For some reason, as I read the story, I knew she’d be wearing yoga pants.
