It reminds me of two articles I read in the newspaper recently. The first one almost made me cry, because it was so sweet. A company spent two days and something like 2-3000 euros in expenses to get a kitten out of a storm drain down in the sewers where it was stuck.

Made me feel that there’s hope for humanity.

Then just a couple of days later I read about some poor kitten who was dumped in the middle of a city, got itself lost onto the subway tracks and a couple asked the subway driver to wait with leaving the station so they could save it. He, however, said he couldn’t wait cause he “had to be on schedule” – and drove anyway.

So horrible. Surely he’d just had to wait 5-10 mins while they coaxed the little thing out..

It’s weird really, I can read about a lot of crap happening to humans and done to humans by other humans – but whenever I read about animals being treated badly I turn into a blubbering baby.

In short, very well done, Colt – I’m sure the cat will find a great home with you guys

I think given the right circumstances you would be a hero too. I don’t think that you can compare it to pugging with strangers – although I can bet that if (and when) you do and someone was in trouble you would help them, rather than laugh at them, or call them a noob.

Hugs to you both and bravo for your kindness and love for itty bitty kitties
