The little cat, only a few months old, was shivering in a cardboard
box when a woman out walking noticed her dog was sniffing the box with
particular interest. Curious why the dog wouldn’t leave the box alone, she opened the flap
and was shocked to find this note inside in a child’s handwriting:
It says: ‘My mommy’s boyfriend is mean to me. Desperet for loving home
The walker immediately scooped up the kitty and took it to the vets,
relieved to find out it was a little on the skinny side but otherwise in
good health. Then she took the cat to Meow Cat Rescue who were happy to take her on.
In a post on Facebook, rescue staff said: ‘The baby is now in a
foster home with other kittens of similar age and doing very well.
‘We are so happy to have her. We have more questions than answers,
but are forever thankful for the bravery of the child who knew the
kitten deserved better and the kindness of the woman who saved the
kitten.’
Since the centre posted about the rescue it has been inundated with offers from people wanting to give the kitten a loving home. We just hope the child who left the note is okay too.
Rachel Bjork, who found the box, posted on Facebook that she wrote back to the child. She said:
"I did leave a note the day
after I found her. I checked on the note for a few days and it was
untouched. Recently the envelope was opened and the letter removed."
