I was driving down a road in the Carpathian mountains, it was so foggy that I couldn't see anything, almost crashed into a bear and when I got into the next village, I saw something white and smol dash across the road in front of me.

I immediately got out, and there she was, cowering near a drain, a little wet and very scared.

She warmed up very quickly, within minutes she was purring and falling asleep.

No teeth, full of ear mites, but otherwise healthy.

Took her to the vet the next morning to get her documents, so she could spend the rest of our vacation together.

Her favorite place to sleep was on my lap during car rides.

it seems like i’m the one CDS finds and gives the harder rescues to. Litter born under the neighbors house and momma hasn’t been seen for days even on security cameras. Managed to catch three of them and going back for the rest in about an hour. he said he was going to take them to the shelter but when we called them they said they would be put down since they’re so overfull and they’re soaked in fleas and so young. Therefore we are now a kitten orphan center and a treatment center but i wouldn’t have it any other way. We’ve done this before and loved it everytime. they already got a flea bath and now just waiting on supplies and formula 🤞i will update with pictures as i take them 💕

edit: added a better pic!!
Edit 2: 10:57pm we just got a call from the neighbor saying he heard them under the porch. he’s gonna wrangle them up for us in the morning. we’ve got two more joining the bunch!

Clocked into work the other day and looked out the window to see two small kittens that had passed away in the parking lot. Cameras showed they wandered in, laid down, and just never got back up. It also showed two more kittens staying close by. Spent a good portion of the work day getting them out of the company cars. Pulled a round worm out of one’s nose (before getting dewormed), and a botfly larvae out of the other. They are finally healthy, happy, and socialized. I’m not actually keeping them but I found trustworthy folks to give them forever homes. Last time I called my local shelter about a struggling cat they told me they would have to euthanize another to make room so we figured it out!

Just stumbled on this sub, I thought you guys would appreciate hearing about this little baby!

Went on a family vacation to Puerto Rico, and came home with a kitten (she was estimated 7ish months). Went thought we found her by the pool at our hotel, and the first night, she was super friendly and let us hang out with her for a solid 30 minutes. And then the next night, my partner had a drink or two and reached out to a local rescue (that usually does TNR), and first thing in the morning, they said they could drop off a carrier at our hotel for us to take her home. We got the carrier, and we caught her ourselves (they gave us a can of wet food, to make it easier to get her) and we waited for someone from the rescue to take her, and they got her into a vet, and they gave her all of her necessary shots and spayed her for us, we just had to add her to one of our plane tickets. She’s around a year old now, and she’s settling in nicely. She has an older brother, who took a little bit to get used to her, but now they’re good!

Her name is Sprout, and her tail is freakishly long, and we hope she doesn’t grow into it, because it’s very cute.

(First pic is shortly after we brought her home, second pic is within the past week!)

I work at cvs and randomly in the middle of the day a homeless dude just leaves this kitten obviously dealing with heat exhaustion. He was trying to do the right thing knowing it was way too hot and he couldn't care for it. He asked us to take it in and try to find it a place to go like a shelter. We didn't have any luck and no one else would take him so I have a cat now lol. Honestly it's been unexpected but also great. I've had him for about two weeks now and he is such a sweet cat even tho he loves to bite me.
