Hiccup, The Dragon Tamer.

Apr 22, 2015 16:30

This little guy was found in the park being bullied by some boys. He was brought into the vet’s office where my cousin works. They estimate him at about 5 weeks, 1 ½ pounds, I believe. Due to his injuries, they had to amputate one of his back legs. Next he needed a home. We told our cousin not to show us any pictures, because we know we are weak. ( Read more... )

He is so sweet, but bossy and full of it! He wants to eat your fingers and we are trying to break him of that but it's so cute when he thinks he is fierce and going to get your finger with his tiny little baby teeth! My sister is going to be Mama and I am Lady, just like with Pippin and Kirk, cuz my cranky old man doesn't like to share. Actually, Roo has been fine with Hiccup since he doesn't sleep in our room, he sleeps in Sis' room. Roo doesn't care about anything except that he gets me and our bed all to himself at night! Hiccup likes to be swaddled and have his little butt patted and I sing him to sleep and it is so cute!

Hiccup is so sweet and he wants to play with all the big boy cats here and they are tolerating it like good boys. He doesn't realize that he only weighs like 2 pounds, he thinks he is so fierce! And we just swaddled him up and he falls right to sleep but he is so disgruntled about it because he thinks he will miss something exciting!

The woman who rescued Hiccup also rescued a sibling kitten and took them home for the night and the poor sibling died in the night, so she brought Hiccup in to the vet in the morning. I wish she had called the police and gotten those boys in some trouble. All I can think about is my little brother and his friends when he was like 13 and they were these little punk skateboarders who I know got up to stealing and smoking and fights and whatever, but they also helped any injured animals they came across and rescued strays and stuff. Like these boys who were torturing Hiccup could take a serious life lesson from most unruly teens because even they know who don't hurt an animal!

LOL, I knew exactly what was coming next! What a lucky boy, getting such a wonderful home. You have such a loving heart.

We knew what was coming next too! We told her not to show us any pictures!! Lol

My sister at first said she thought we were being selfish, wanting a kitten when we have such good cats already and I was like, 'It's not for us, it's for him. It's not whether or not we need a kitten, it is that he needs us, he needs a home, he needs a good home and he needs our home.' And that is so true. This little guy has been through so much already, that he totally needed to come home with us.

What an adorable little kitten. How could ANYONE be mean to such a sweetie. I don't do much hating, but I HATE people who are cruel to animals. HATE, HATE, HATE them!!! 5-1/2 weeks is too soon to even leave his mother. I wonder what happened to the rest of the litter.

You and your sister are VERY kind to take him in. It's a shame he lost a leg, but the rest of his life will be wonderful with the two of you.

I too hate people who are mean to animals. They are helpless and can't understand what you want from them and just...no. I wish the woman who rescued him had called the police on those boys! When she rescued him, he had a sibling with him and she took that kitten too but unfortunately it died in the night before she could get them to a vet. Idk about the rest of the liter or the mother. He was too young to be away from his mama, which is one reason my cousin wanted us to take him. We found Kirk and Pippin when they were only like 3 weeks old and nursed them and taught them how to use the litter and all of that, so she knew we would be good with Hiccup. Also as kids we had a three legged cat, so she knew we would be good with that too ( ... )

It sounds like a match made in heaven...you, your sister and Hiccup. I hope you have many, many years together. I've rescued so many cats and kittens in my lifetime. I should do an entry someday about them, but it would probably end up being a novel rather than a journal entry.
