At 9 months old, Bently's owners discovered that he was very sick. Now, you would want the story to continue with them doing everything they can to help him and save him, but these owners were not that. Having found out that the procedures the kitten needed would cost them 800$, these owners opted to leave the clinic with just the exam. Thankfully, imgur user forte10 came to the rescue, offering to take the kitten off their hands and take care of it as if it was their own.
So, this story has a hapy ending after all. The kitten got the help that he needed and is now a happy guy who loves nothing more than chilling with his new family.
We want to thank forte10 for helping this poor kitten and for sharing their story. We want nothing more than to hear more of those. If you have a pet story of your own to share, come tell us about it in our Facebook group: ICanHas Storytime.
"When he came into our clinic, he was "Bently". He had a broken leg, ear mites, fleas, two testicles, and wasn't vaccinated. He was also an outdoor cat. When his proposed bill came to a little over $800, his owners opted to just pay for the exam and leave. I got the feeling they didn't really care for his well being, and so I made them an offer: let me have him, and I would take care of him like he was my own. They accepted. A little too fast, TBH."
"Heck, it wasn't even an abscess from a cat fight. (Later we would find he likes to jump up and down from high places...jackass)."
Cats can be stupid like that sometimes unfortunately. You can't always save them. You can only do your best to help them whenever you have the opportunity. And you definitely did, forte10.
