I was busy planting some strawberries when V motioned me to come over, and I discovered the boy with a metal crate full of kittens (and the strong scent of ( Read more... )

We have a kitten!!! His name is Spartacus. He was discovered by a kind, animal-loving couple up in Smyrna on Friday. Found him terrified, hungry, and dirty hiding in some bushes. He responded well to a bath, a warm blanket, and some food. But they have a very large dog and just couldn't keep him. They took blurry phone photos of a tiny black kitten ( Read more... )
