Yay for cat pics!!! National politics have gotten me so riled up that I had to come look at pictures of kitties. Cats just live in the moment, don't they! Keep them coming, everyone!

Default Sharing a small success story

I'll try to make this long story short. This is about a little kitten named Lucy that was born to a feral mamma at my workplace around June 2010. The first photo shows how sick she was. I had 7 cats of my own at the time and I knew I couldn't keep her, but I had to get her out of there because she wasn't going to make it. Made the 40 mile trip home with her & straight to my vet. They cleaned her up and got her on the antibiotics she needed & I picked her up the next morning. I made some calls to family members and got lucky, when my niece adopted her the next day. The second photo is Lucy about 2 months ago. She is now the queen of the household, and is adored by everyone.

Catdad you are mitzvah personified, (frequently translated as human kindness or a blessing).

Thanks for the comments everybody. It's certainly one of the high points in my career as a cat person. I drive right by her house every day when going to work, and it always makes me smile knowing she's in such a good home.
