Irina says: I am a professional photographer, I live not far from Moscow. Animals live in our family since childhood. Lived 13 years with our cat, whom we found a newborn and nursed. For 17 years my mother had a dog which was also once took to the streets. So this is a good tradition to rescue animals. ;)

The first were two cute little kitten. I, as a photographer, could not pass on, showed them pictures in blog, and they quickly found the owners. Then we saw two homeless kittens, bright red, they were perfectly healthy, and after a visit to the vet they too had gone to their new homes.

The following summer, while walking in the evening with a dog, I saw children who were seeing a kitten in a grass hut. The kitten was very exhausted when I took it. Veterinarian did not give assurances that it will survive. But she really wanted to live and quickly recovered. Our Sphinx always been friends with another of our cat and our dog, collie, and they all took to baby without any problems. :) Eventually we have found owners for her too. Her name is now Bree, she lives in Moscow.

This is not my merit, I'm just a photographer and try not to pass someone else's misfortune. Thank you to those people who have taken up the families of these kittens.

What a cutie! So glad you found her. One of the greatest regrets in my life is not having been able to stop the taxi I was in many years ago, in the middle of the road leading to Domodyedovo airport, to rescue a kitten who was running next to the separation gate. Your Sphinx is beautiful too.

Your photography is inspired and your subject here is way beyond just cute, though she has oodles of that to spare.
Bree is adorable in every frame and your talent shines through.
Personally, I could never have let her go; so that is why my good lady will not let me foster.

We rescued a litter of 5 little fluffies almost 3 years ago. Four went to their forever homes, but the little red fluffy stayed with us. We didn't NEED a fourth cat, but neither of us could part with Erik the Red.

Bree is truly beautiful and you are a wonderful person for helping these little ones find a forever home. I hope Bree hs playmates in her new home. She seems to be such a loving kitty.
