One sad kitten remained after her entire litter got dumped in front of a pet store, until a chance visitor decided she wasn't leaving without her: 'The man said $50 and I replied, put her in a box'

    A few years ago I was visiting my mom up in the Midwest for winter. Being the workaholic she is, my mom still had a few hours to put in so my partner and I checked out what was around her small town.

    We found a pet store and decided to stop in. While my partner was looking around, I came across a "cat pen" with this tiny round sad thing sitting in it.

  • Kittens are social animals, they're usually born into a litter of brothers and sisters and are quite literally always surrounded by them. So for a kitten to be all alone… it just breaks our hearts. Thankfully, she didn't stay alone for long!

    She had no toys, no bed, only a litter box and food/water + a tiny scrap of Grey cloth that she huddled against. Apparently someone decided to dump some kittens in front of the store in the middle of a fine frigid Midwest winter and she was the only one left.

    Now I know what you might be thinking, "they did their best" or "atleast they took them in". My guys, they SELL cat stuff in their store. I mean EVERYTHING from basics, they had beds, toys, litters+boxes,food/treats, accessories and still chose to give her, NOTHING.

    I asked to play with her and then next thing I asked was how much for her. The man said $50 and I replied, put her in a box. He said she hasn't had any if her basic shots yet, I dont care, | made an appointment right there and then for when we returned to our homestate.

    The store owner satisfied, we grabbed some basics for her so she was comfortable for the next few days + the trip home. This is Pooter, she loves chicken and sitting on laps. Her favorite pass time is dinner prep and sitting by a fake fire place. If there's a cold empty lap, then there's room for a Pooter.

  • She really does love resting in front of the fake fireplace! You know how cats are with warm things (they're obsessed with them), so even the idea of purrceived warmth is enough for her to take over the entire thing. And you know what else? She looks so happy here. Nothing makes us happier than seeing a cat happy and safe with their chosen hooman. It warms our hearts… probably even more than that fake fireplace does!
