No one can resist a teeny tiny kitten in need. 

That's exactly what happened – a kitten was in need. A man found her in a storeroom crying, she's so small that he doesn't even know how to care for her. He usually doesn't like cats, but he took one look at her and went, "awwww," and the deal was sealed, she was his. He gives a detailed list of how he's been caring for her so far. He's been feeding her with a dropper and says she drinks about 10-15 ml of diluted milk per feeding, and he's been feeding her every 2-3 hours. He claims she sleeps a lot and sometimes has small body tremors/shivers. He doesn't think she's cold, but after looking at the comments, it seems like she might be. He says he doesn't have a lot of experience with pets, and that's why he's seeking advice from the internet on how to care for her. He says she's able to crawl but seems very weak. She's also been crawling on top of him at a mere 230 g. The comments all seem to be in accordance with the fact that she needs to be warmer, and she needs his comfort. He did the right thing by asking people what to do, or else it could have ended badly for him and the cat. Read the full story below, and don't let a preconceived notion of a pet stop you from adopting a cat of your own!

    Also... I never really liked cats before, but after seeing this tiny creature I'm already going "aww." I might end up adopting her.

  • I can't even imagine someone not liking cats. Who says that, and why would someone not like cats?! They're the best. They're so simply and cute, they're real companions, even if they seem distant or stoic on the outside. They're really affectionate if you care for them well. The thing I love about cats is how easy going they are compared to dogs. Dogs are so adorable and wonderful, but they can be so abrasive and overwhelming too. Dogs can be too much, they can be aggressive without trying to with other dogs, and they sort of disrupt peace. Cats? The worst a cat will do is meow for tuna and salmon. Cats are just easier, they're smaller, and honestly they're so fun to have. Their personalities can be so playful and they're just too cute.
