My STORY
My life could
have been very different if the human who
had found me had not taken me to where she
did!
She thought
it was the local rescue centre and turned up
one Sunday at their door with me in a paper
bag.
She asked them
to put me down as she had found me by the
road side near to death. It was true as I
could hardly breathe I couldn’t move or eat,
I could no longer open my eyes, that is why
my mother had abandoned me and took my
little sister away with her.
I was about
three weeks old and as weak as a kitten,
pardon the pun!
She asked the
lady she handed me over to; to put me down,
whatever that was.
The lady they
handed me over too, took me in her hands
and held me close, I tried to move my paw
and touch her finger, I later heard her tell
somebody that was the moment, she decided I
was going to live.
I was put on
something warm and covered over so that I
could snuggle inside, but I found it hard to
even lift my head or open an eye.
I was so
hungry but I could not eat.
Every so often
(every 15mins) I was given a small drop of
something on my tongue and it slipped down
my throat, after a few days of this, (both
day and night) I could start to feel
something strange, I could move a little.
This went on
for two weeks and at the end of it I was
sitting up, still very wobbly on my legs and
the mixture had got creamier and tasted very
good, just like my mothers had in the
beginning.
I could see,
but my eyes where sticky and itchy, and my
skin was itchy too, every day my eyes got
washed and over the next few weeks my sight
cleared and they gave me something called a
bath. I wasn’t sure I liked that, but my
skin stopped itching.
I was being
fed every 4 hours now, and the food tasted
good, Chicken, and Fish were my favourites.
I felt strong,
I was warm and I loved my new mum.
Then I heard
one day, two humans discussing my future,
they were saying I was healthy and strong
enough, to have a new home, my mum had done
a good job they said.
I wailed and
wailed when I heard that, I didn’t want to
go anywhere, why didn’t she want me.
A few minutes
later, my mum came into the room and joined
in the conversation.
One of the
first humans was called a vet, the one who
had said I was fit and well and could have a
new home. She explained to my mum, I was now
ready to leave this safe and warm place.
I started to w
ail again very very loud this time.
My mum picked
me up and nestles me close to her,´´ there
there´ she said to me, stroking me softly,
eoh how I loved her voice and smell, I
purred loudly.
She explained
to the others that I was staying with her
forever.
She said I was
in her heart.
I was named a
few days later……………
