Viral Thread: Rescue Of An Itty Bitty Injured Black Kitten

Coming across an abandoned tiny and helpless kitten on the street is a heart-wrenching thing each and every time. Our hearts cannot help but go out to them, and yet, as much as we wish we could help, that's not always a possibility. Thankfully, this injured awwdorable itty bitty black kitten has lucked out, being rescued by some wonderful people. 

After not finding the kitten's mom, Covidnineteen on imgur picked the kitten up and took it home, bringing it to the vet, feeding it from a bottle, gently introducing it to the purrfect senior cat and the dog in the house. Not everyone would have undertaken such a task, so we feel like we absolutely have to say thank you. We wish this adorable rescued kitten as well as its family a long and most happy life together.

    We cannot tell you how grateful we are that you took this itty bitty kitty into your home. Having lost its family when it's so small, we know that it could not have survived for long without your help. Not everyone could have done such a wonderful thing, and you truly deserve a world of praise for it.

We are sure that it was some of the most catmusing yet wholesome things we would have seen in our entire lives. Thank you for this amazing thing that you've done and for sharing your story. We wish you and this kitten the very, very best.
