    A year ago today amidst the birds chirping I thought I heard a teeny meow, sure enough when I stopped my bike I caught a glimpse of a little black kitten on top of a drainage pipe that swiftly darted into the Florida brush…
    Sam really is a very lucky black kitten, I’m so glad our paths crossed and I was finally able to catch her the following day!
    Huge THANK YOU to Milo’s Sanctuary in California for the guidance and support and for taking little Sam in to their rescue and finding her a perfect home!
    Happy Meowloween!

      One time I heard that from underneath a car, so I looked under to make sure no kitten would be hurt when the owner drove away. I saw nothing, but still heard the meows. Then I saw a tiny little face looking at me through the manhole grate cover.
      She’d fallen through the grates (around 2.5” apart) because she was so tiny, but I couldn’t open the cover with the car in the way. So I rang every doorbell to ask if they were or knew the owner, until a lady gave me the right address. He moved his car, I opened the cover and luckily she was social and hugged up to my hand.
      My neighbour grabbed an old towel and we went straight to the vet since the kitten had no collar. Turns out she got her collar off because it was too big and her owner had already called to get notified if a striped brown kitten was found. She was very dirty but otherwise fine.
      Probably the best day of my life to rescue her from an invisible spot and seeing her owner’s face when they reunited.

      Same here. We have a beautiful sold-black kitty lounging in the other room - I went outside and immediately heard a kitten crying. It took me quite a while to find her, she was stuck in a bit of flexible duct material. She was cold and wet and less that two weeks old - her eyes were just starting to open and she was HUNGRY. We were rushing around for a few hours - getting her dry and warm, get KMR and fed her, and then comforted her (momma had abandoned her).
      Now she's a big cat and a real sweetheart whose 'signature move' is to grab your hand and give your arm gentle little love nips or to rub her head against it. She's her own person - very vocal and willing to let you know what she wants and doesn't want. If she starts purring (common), you can often hear it quite a few feet away. Her favorite place to sleep is on our chests and left shoulders.
      Before her, we knew that there was a female kitty (drop-off) that had her kittens somewhere near or in our yard. I was outside and heard a kitten mewing. We had an old drier that was going out for recycling - there was this cute little orangie in the duct on the back of the drier. I walked up to him and picked him up and held him near my face and said "Well, Hello there!". That little guy started purring and gave me a great big kitten nose rub. Every since then, he's been my special kitty (now he's my old man kitty) and his favorite sign of affection is giving nose rubs, purring, and responding when I call out to him. We eventually found three kittens when I found him - my Sunshine, his brother Spot (RIP age 7), and his brother Cubby Bear (RIP age 11).
      Nothing commands my attention like a kitten or cat crying in distress! I just have to do whatever I can to make things better!

      It’s heartbreaking to go through that after having them as part of the family. When I lost my Mugwai, to a combination of renal failure and heart disease, it almost broke me. I decided to honor his memory by hospice fostering another senior kitty, Tobias, who was in renal failure. Believe it or not, that actually helped me deal with the grief, especially when Toby rallied and managed to live over 3 years with me, instead of the 3-6 months the shelter vets gave him.

    That kitten reminds me of my cat Shady. He's a black cat too and when he was a kitten he was also found on the side of road alone. Not sure why. I always wondered though if he was dumped off b/c he was a black cat. I was volunteering at the local humane society the day he was brought in and I will always remember the poor little guy was so hungry he was trying to eat adult cat food. The shelter had a nursing mama cat there at the time and she let Shady nurse alongside her kittens. Shady really touched my heart and I ended up adopting him. 7 years later, he's a big boy and my best buddy. Black cats are the best. Thank you, Chris, for all you do to help cats.

      i doubt sam and most kittens in similar situations were dumped by people. there are just a whole lot of feral cats having litters. sam most likely got separated from her litter on accident (got lost running from a threat, or crawl onto a vehicle and transported far away, etc.).

    This brought tears to my eyes. I suspected the instant I saw her that she was a drop-off, and her behavior afterward quickly reinforced my thinking. She is a beautiful kitten, and will make a striking cat. Black cats can rival "Gingers" for being loving and sweet!
    I am so glad for her. We have 4 mini-panthers, and they are some of the most affectionate and loving cats I've ever had. Two like to sleep with us (if it's even a tiny bit cool, one wants to be under the covers between us), and the others - well, they love to snuggle and show affection (one would spend hours on my shoulder if she could). As far as the "bad luck" stuff - only in America (probably driven by religious superstition)!

      @RedHeart64 3 года назад +2

      @Mitzi Miau Yes it is, and it belongs to ONE specific religion (and no, I am NOT atheist - what I am is my business only). As far as your comment - there were religions before Christianity forced itself on different areas (documented fact - conquest or 'regime change' and clear coercion). Some of those religions still exist in a limited form - Wiccan is one of them. The people that follow that old tradition (beliefs and practices handed down through families through the generations while in hiding - I've met some of them) love animals and respect them. At the same time, there is a church near here where the preacher has preached sermons on "Cats are the Devil's pet!" and young adult males bragged to one another about running over cats and kittens. You can guess what religion dominates this area. (We've lost three kitties that way - evidence it was deliberate and the driver nearly wrecked while killing our cat.)
      It appears that the hatred for "Witches" (proper translation of "OT" was more along the line of "poisoners of wells" - which it appears some early and ignorant Christians did in some areas) is actually against people who try to use religion to coerce others into obedience or to punish people. (That last is my opinion.)
      I know very well what I'm talking about - for instance, the stereotypical "witch" costume you see all the time? Here's a funny little fact I learned years ago - in much of Italy (those dread "Papists"), chimney sweeps wore costumes like that - protecting them from soot while they worked (and the broom was to clean up afterward). You see, chimney sweeps were necessary because if the chimney wasn't cleaned, it would likely catch fire and burn down the building. As I heard it, in parts of that peninsula, a female chimney sweep was the one who brought gifts on Christmas (the story told to children). The last part about the female chimney sweep - I'm not entirely sure of, but I do know that the attire was correct. Here's another thing - black is NOT considered a sign of evil in many religions (many of which existed before the man miscalled "Jesus" lived - and by the way many non-Christians really respect his teachings, the ones we know he probably taught).
      The "black cat" thing isn't that old, maybe 400 years or so (at most). The other comment about the Puritans was probably right on target - they were the militant fundamentalists of their day and driven from county to country (the original pilgrims) because they tried to take over the government, not because they were being religiously persecuted. Another documented fact.
      Now, I personally refuse to have anything more to do with Christianity and churches (except when I'm forced to) because of our personal experiences, but the fact is that nearly every major (and many minor) religions have their good people (who care about others and wouldn't force their beliefs on anyone), their conservatives who would willingly use economic or legal coercion to convert others (but no violence), their fundamentalists (who would balk at war and murder but anything else goes), and their militants (for whom war and murder is fine if it's the "Other"). No one religion is perfect or holds all the truth.
      Funny thing is that the one generally despised by others, is the one that readily admits to that!

You are a good person Chris. Glad you got the kitten. Back in 2017 I rescued a newborn kitten laying on the ground where I live and took him to a Vet asap which they called around and found her a rescue to care for her and bottled fed. She was still very young and had to be helped to go to the bathroom. I was working long hours at the time and was not able to give her around the clock care. The Vet told me that a lady came in that day and had to have her cat put down and she took the kitten home so it was a happy ending for her and the kitten.

What's worse is that they reproduce rather quickly and in great numbers in trouble areas of the world that do not have any TNR programs. It's ignorant to group cat haters with people who actually recognize the risks of leaving cat populations without control.

After fumbling with my keys a bit I dropped them and had to turn around to pick them up. At that moment, I thought I saw the bag move ever so slightly. I went back and ripped it open and there was a tiny little black kitten barely alive. I cranked the AC and took her immediately to a vet not far from where I live.
