Christmas Day Kittens
Christmas Day gave us an example of the worst, and the best, of human
beings. These four little black kittens, about four weeks old, and one
already very sick with very infected eyes, were callously dumped to die
either by dehydration, or mauled to death by savage dog or human.
They
were fortunate to be found by a good man and his little daughter who
were having a walk on Christmas morning. They did not simply shake
their heads and move on, but tried to find someone to look after the
kittens. Finally they were given the trust's number, and the kittens'
fortunes changed.
The
infected eyes are being treated, and they are being fostered until they
are strong enough to be rehomed. If anyone is looking for a pretty
little black kitten, who could be more deserving than one of these,
thrown away to die, but saved by a number of caring humans?
UPDATE: With much sadness we must report that all but one
of these beautiful kittens has passed on and gone to the Rainbow Bridge
to be with all other pets, to be loved forever by those who remember
them.
*Update - July 2010:
The one surviving kitten, Earl, who was up for adoption has got himself a forever home. Congratulations little Earl!
