5 kittens found discarded in trash without food or water by dumpster diver who saves them, bringing the cats home to clean, feed, cuddle and find purrfect furever homes, rescuer says: ‘I’m very grateful that the cat distribution system brought them to me’

If you thought dumpster diving was exclusively for the pursuit of food, then think again as this tail tells of a heroic hooman who came upon a box of kittens one dumpster dive.

It is rather surreal to imagine that you would find kittens, the sweetest and cutest creatures out there, dumped next to a donation bin. After all, even if you did not want the kittens or could not afford to care for them, there are more than enough people who would be willing to give them a home. Heck, even standing on the street with the box and handing them out would be as easy as giving away candy.

But some people simply cannot stand the guilt of doing so and so they turn to alternatives that afford them the opportunity to shy away from their responsibility to find these kittens some sort of home. But lucky for these kittens, there are hoomans out there who know that dumpsters often contain all sorts of prized objects just sitting there for the taking. Not that our heroic dumpster diver knew that the precious piece they would be coming home with that night would be five cute kittens...

How in the world did we get to the point that it is in any way reasonable to leave kittens alongside inanimate items for donation? Surely, they require a little more support before finding them a new home than someone’s old sweater? And while these kittens might not have been what one would come to expect to find in a donation bin in the parking lot of Barnes and Noble, it is pretty darn noble of this hooman to drop everything they were doing to tend to the kittens they had just come across. Though you have to wonder what other marvels this person has found if kittens are on their list of finds.

Time and again we find ourselves floored by the amount of support and help that the cat community comes together to give those hero hoomans who help out less fortunate cats. We can only imagine the amount of cats who have survived their scary back stories and gone on to find purrfect furever homes thanks to the generosity and kindness of the online cat community. So let this story serve as a reminder that if you come across a cat in need of help, whether in real life or online, you should do whatever you can to help and know that there is a whole community of cat lovers waiting to back you up in anyway that you might need.
