Abandoned Kitten Found in Public Mailbox in Boston

The kitten they're calling "Postina" likely was stuffed Friday through a
small opening of the mailbox and dropped several feet below, according to
the MSPCA Animal Care and Adoption Center.....The MSPCA is offering
Postina for adoption after several days of nourishment and a round of
vaccinations.

Complete story includes a pic of a calico (tortie w/ white for those over
the pond) kitten... with HUGE ears!

Christ. At least it wasn't 12 degrees out (12 F = -11 C), like it was
when Dewey Readmore Books was stuffed into the book drop in Iowa one
January night - and somehow managed to survive in there overnight! (I
don't think I have to explain who Dewey was to *this* crowd. :))

What kind of lowlife throws a kitten in a mailbox??

Sorry, it's probably a sweet story, in the end at least, but I haven't
read it yet so I'm still just plain annoyed about it.

OK, now I'm going to read the whole thing, and maybe that will cheer
me up.

1) What is WRONG with people? I am currently up to my armpits in ferals,
and hearing stories about human stupidity every day, it seems.

2) What a super-cutie-- LOVE the half-black face!!!

There's a video of the little cutie he

The MSPCA is where Betty, Dot, and Buster were adopted, although
Postina is at a different branch from the one I usually go to (pics
from a couple of years ago at
http://home.comcast.net/~Takayuki9z/shelter2.html).

It looks like that is the site of the Angell Memorial Animal Hospital,
or what *used* to be the Angell Memorial. I lived in that area in the
1970s, and I used to bring my cats there - had one spayed there, years
later I had her euthanized there. :(

I guess the hospital merged with the MSPCA?

She didn't pee on any of the mail, which gives me the impression that
she wasn't in there all that long. And I'm happy to hear that people are
lining up to adopt her. She's very cute.

Lowlife, indeed. But at least there's reasonable chance of the cat/kitten
being found quickly by the postman. I think it's akin to abandoning a baby
on the steps of a church or hospital... not that I condone that behavior,
either. But better than putting it in a rubbish bin.
