Kitty loves to play on this old spinning wheel we put flowers on in the summer. Our dog, Puntik, and I found Kitty when she was three weeks old. She was sitting in the middle of a rarely-used road about a kilometer from our house. She was covered with mud and burrs. Someone had abandoned her there.
When she saw us she started meowing for help really loudly. She was desperate to live. When we got near she started to totter toward Puntik and then jumped on my foot. Puntik thought it was a good idea to take her home and I went along with the notion.
We cleaned her up and then fed her for a number of weeks with egg and milk. We had to use the plastic part of a syringe to feed her because she didn't know how to eat. Now she's a happy kitten five months old.

@dpm: It was the dog's idea. I just went along with it. LOL. Thank you, dpm.
What a beautiful Kitty she is - and I'm so happy you rescued her. Never in her wildest dreams would she have imagined she would live such a life -- don't you think? She looks healthy and happy (and beautiful too).

You caught Kitty in the middle of mischief. What beautiful golden eyes. To see a cat in snow seems so out of place for me. Like a cat and bath water. Great capture and composition. Thanks for sharing your story, too.

A very heartfelt story. A kind a loving family (and food) is all she wanted. What a beauty she turned out to be. Adorable eyes and shiny coat. The pose on the wheel with snow is suitable for a calendar. Thank you for saving her life.
