Family hears stray cat crying for help in their backyard, follows the noise into a shed, finds a kitten hidden behind old paint cans alone in the dark: 'He persevered against all odds’

If there is one thing we absolutely cannot ignore, it is the sound of a kitten crying for help. Even if we know there is not much we can do, at the very least, we know we must find the origin of the crying and do our best to help this sweet soul in need. 

We cannot tell you how many times we have found ourselves walking down the street and stopping in our tracks as soon as a little distressed meow reaches our ears. It doesn't matter where we were headed or if we were in a hurry; we must stop and look for the kitten to see if it needs any help.

Luckily, most of the time when we find the furry feline, we learn that their mother is around and that the family is actually quite fine. We still try to help however we can, but knowing Mom is around instantly soothes our hearts. 

Other times, we understand that the distressed kitten is in much need of assistance, and we know we cannot keep walking without providing it with what it needs.
