When you hear a kitten in need, you go running. 

You hear meowing, the meowing gets louder and louder. You hear from the same area some kids, they're laughing and their laughter mirrors the yells of the cat. There's only one thing to do: to go see what all the commotion is about. This kind person saw some kids with a little innocent, helpless orange kitten. He immediately took her, knowing the kids aren't responsible enough to help. He takes her home, and though he can't have a cat right now, and even with his aunt creating a fuss over the cat, he still manages to nurse the kitten back to health. He gave her a bath, and the two have been together since. She's been sleeping most of the time, probably recovering from all the chaos. His best friend is a vet, so he's following her educated instructions on how to care for the cat until he can find her a furrever home. He's a really good guy. 

Some people can be so cruel. When we're young, we don't have the mature mindsets we achieve as adults. Sometimes we do things we don't mean, and we're less attached to humanity. When we get older, we hopefully gain the insight to be sweet, gentle, kind, and understanding. The kids in the story obviously don't have the insight or maturity to handle seeing a helpless animal without helping it. Who knows what they did, but all we know is that the kitten was saved by this kind human.

  • This is a really good guy. Despite his situation not allowing for cats, and that his aunt is giving him a hard time, he still found it in his heart to help this little orange cat with anything he can. Orange cats are really special too. They're kind of like redheads, they're unique, and feisty, and everyone seems to love them. They're usually known for having upbeat personalities, brazen character, and he a bit more on the mischievous side. I always wanted an orange cat, but I could never give up my striped boy. He's so adorable and has the best brown belly, he looks like a raccoon.
