Those kittens are beyond adorable. I guess the long and short is, there are
a lot of people in the world that are simply not willing to take
responsibility for anything. Not themselves, not their actions, not their
children, not their animals. My one kitten was found behind a grocery store
that is literally across the street from a shelter. If the previous asshole
owner didn't want her, why not cross the street or turn left instead of
right... whatever... and drop her off in a place she would be cared for.
Same with her step sister. A block from the shelter eating mice instead of
a slight amount of effort to make sure she was safe. People are assholes.

Not to sound trite, but even though it's a challenge, in the long run you
are better off. You're the better person. That's a lot of positive energy.

Rant On.
We found two baby kittens in the flowerbed this morning. We live in the
country, with no close neighbors. They didn't walk here by themselves.
Someone
dumped them.
This isn't the first time. Or the second or third. I hate people who dump
animals. Hate isn't a word I use very often, but I hate them. These babies
are
tiny, probably not 10 weeks old. Do people think a 10-week-old kitten can
fend
for itself? The are *very* well socialized. They were relatively in good
shape,
except for being covered with fleas, ticks and stickers.
The last dumped cat, no, wait, it was two dumped cats ago, the one before
Biskit was sealed up in a cardboard box in the drive. Nice touch, to make
sure
the cat didn't wander off too far.
What kind of a lazy-assed person won't drive to a shelter and relinquish
animals. And what kind of mentality thinks *I* should take responsibility
for
their animals.
But you what? I did. I bathed them and fed them and brought them in the
house.
Now I don't have a clue what to do with them. Kitten season is hard this
year.
Shelters are over-run.
If they hadn't wandered up here, they'd have starved, together. I would
rather
see these jackasses put a bullet in a cat's head than dump it to starve.
I took some pictures to make a poster with. Thought I'd share them. Rant
over.
Thanks for listening.
