Kitty, the Cat of the Day
Name: Kitty
Age: Four years old
Gender: Male
Kind: Cat
Home: Valencia, California, USA
 
   Kitty was found under a car in a parking lot in the San Fernando Valley. When I first found him, I thought he was actually a gray and black cat. He must have been no older than eight or nine weeks old. He was in bad shape. His whiskers had been burned off with a lighter, his tail was broken in two places and he was all skin and bones. I took him home, with no doubt that he would not live through the night. He was so weak and skinny that I had to keep nudging him awake to make sure he was alive. I bought him some food, but he was too tired to eat. He slept for hours. When I woke up in the morning, and checked the shoe box he was sleeping in, he was gone! After some searching, I found that he had eaten the food I left out, and had cleaned himself up, and he was actually a white and black kitten. As I already had dogs, and I was allergic to cats, my intentions were to get him healthy and then find a home for him. Since I didn't want to get attached to a stray kitten that I was only going to have for a few days, I didn't give him a name. Four years later, we call him Kitty.
