Take a meowment to consider the two kinds of cats in this world. There are the scaredy cats—fragile, sickly, frail, and easily spooked. And then there are the semi-ferals who are tough, unbreakable, graceful predators of the night. Usually our beloved felines are one of the other (equally lovable of course), but the kitty in this next story was somehow both extremely brittle and completely indestructible. 

Furrtunately for the feline affectionately named 'Tulip,' there is a dutiful hooman in her corner, backing her up and taking her to vet visits as needed. After finding the sweet kitten alone in the woods, this duo never believed they would take an epic journey together: One filled with survival, heartache, and triumph. 

Read on for the fateful story of Tulip's unbeatable rescue, where she combined feline fragility and their tenacious nature, wrapped up in one floofy, adorable package.
