Hi all,
I am working late and just went down to open the garage from the outside

for
a car. Walking along the office building I saw a small black shape very
still on the driveway. I knew it was what I wished it not to be, a little
sweet black feral kitty. She looked all dead, even if she couldn't have

been
lying there for very long. I touched her neck and side to make sure.

By chance a woman just then walked to a spot I've guessed were used for
feeding ferals. So I went and asked if she recognised the little one as

one
of the group, ruling out an owner (there are some mad people who let their
cats out among cars and whatnot here). She knew Little Black Kitty and

told
me they had been hoping to tame her.

She said she'd take care of her, and I got something to put her in. Please
purr for her passing to the bridge. And for the brave people that try to
help the ferals. I was told they normally can only try to catch them to

have
them put to sleep before the city regularly "remove" them. They did have a
recent success taming and placing one kitty. I am sad to say I an mot good
enough a person to actually do something to help. Just giving some money
when you can feels lame compared to actually doing something.

Oh, well. I'll be lighting a candle. Purrs for everyone else who needs

them.
Better get some more work done.

A candle has been lit to guide this poor little one, who never found
the home she deserved on this earth/

A candle is lit here, and we are sending purrs for the little black kitty's passing.

It's always hard to see a dead kitty (or any other critter for that
matter) on the side of the road. It breaks my heart every single time.
Purrs for the little black kitty and for the wonderful person that took
care of her in her short life.
Purrs to you for feeling bad and for donating money. Sometimes it's the
most we can do and it most certainly helps.

Oh, I'm so sorry for Little Black Kitty :-( Purrs for a gentle trip
to the Bridge.

The city puts ferals down??? I am appalled. Do they not know about
TNR there? Managing feral colonies? To think all these feral babies
are being put down is awful.

Don't feel bad for not doing more, lewe. We can all only do what we
can do. Even sending money *does* help. I wish I could help every
single stray and feral cat, but I just don't have the resources or the
energy, so I help when I can, and hope other kind hearts out there
help with a few, and others send a few bucks to shelters, and so on.
We all do the best we can, so please try not to feel bad about that.

Purrs for the kitty.
