Patrick [redux]

February 19, 2014

Michelle says: Patrick and his two sisters Emily and Ashley are part of a litter of five kittens. We took three of the kittens and another foster home took two. Someone had dropped these little two-week-old babies into a mailbox at a rural post office along with another litter of five kittens. Can you believe that?! Not even in a box in front… but inside. We were lucky; they were actually very healthy. As always, we raised some very snuggly, affectionate babies. Patrick has been adopted.

What a beautiful kitten! I have a thing for the orange feline fellas:) Bless you for taking in and helping the homeless kitties/kittens. The world surely needs more people like you.

the cruelty of some humans is impossible to believe; thankfully there are some angels who rescue these precious beings. Patrick is too adorable.

I realize they are all grown up by now but I foster so a group of babies always tugs on my heart strings! Bless you for taking them and teaching them about love! It is so fun!

at least it was only letters dropping on their little heads. I have heard of people putting kittens in library book drops and they get books tossed in on top of them. On the other hand, how can we expect people to treat animals well when we treat other people so horribly? We need to take a compassion pill for other people and little orange cats!

Mailbox? Five kitties! Perhaps the mailer knew they would be easily found. Still disgraceful. Yet, If they had been dropped off at a "shelter," the outcome would have been much worse.

Patrick is so worth saving.

Those poor babies, they were born to the wrong people. Now in your loving hands, you can see in Patrick's beautiful face that he is happy and thriving. Thank you for all you do.

Such a handsome face on this little Patrick. I just love the ginger catties, they are so easy going. So glad that he got a forever home! Thanks Michelle. The mean things that humans do to these tiny babies never ceases to amaze me!
