There is a special place in Basement Cat's lair for people who dump kittens. Seriously, everyone loves kittens; it's not that hard to find someone to care for them. We know that kittens are a lot of work (as a cat dad of three, who raised all three from kittenhood), but those little babies deserve to live a life filled with love, tuna, and head scratches. What they don't deserve is to be put in a plastic bag and thrown in the garbage. If it wasn't for this kind woman who found them, they might not have ever known what life really was.

But thanks to the power of the Cat Distribution System, luckily, they were found. They were taken in, cared for, cleaned up, and now they're all in their furrever homes. The woman below found all four kittens in the trash, and she was able to give three to close friends, while keeping one for herself. She says that they have frequent meetups with the cats for them to play with their siblings, and honestly, that just made our day! What's even better is that today, October 16th, she and her kitty are celebrating their 1-year gotcha-versary, and it looks like they've never been happier.

  • We're a little upset we didn't also get pictures of his fellow feline siblings, especially if they're as cute as he is! It's ameowzing how much having a loving home can change a cat's appearance. If you've ever seen those before-and-after adoption photos, you know exactly what we're talking about.

  • We loooooooove flamepoint cats. They have the purrity and innocence of white cats with just a touch of craziness from their orangeness. We had one growing up, and it was the most loving cat we ever had.

    NorthStar-8.8h ago Cymric (Long-haired Manx) Your story is so special! What an awful thing for someone to put little kittens in a plastic bag and throw them away like trash! Heartbreaking! But it sure does make a lovely story of your rescue. I'm so happy and grateful for you and all the kitties!
