“She was filthy, sick, and starving—and still kinder than anyone around me”: Foster cat’s severe neglect sparks a fallout that exposes owner and ends a toxic relationship

Cat rescues really do come in all shapes and sizes. And much like snowflakes, it is almost impossible to compare on to another. Which is perhaps why we are so drawn to them in the first place. But this particular story adds an unexpected element in which our heroic rescuer ends up saving not only one cat, but also a kitten in the process of making sure that the previous owner of the first cat that was rescued, did not have the opportunity to make the same mistake she made with her original catto with a brand-new kitten.

This is the story of a woman who would not let the threat of social alienation stop her from being a carer of all cattos. This is the story of how feline love trumps all. And most importantly, this is the story that should remind you one and all, that adopting a cute catto means giving them a world and never taking it away.
