New Daughter: Pumpkin
She actually has kind of an interesting background story…
Back in May several tornadoes swept through the Atlanta area, one of which hit downtown Atlanta.
After the tornadoes, a worker at a construction site found 8 kittens - which can only be assumed that they are from the same litter - in a storm drain. The mother was found dead in a nearby pond.
He brought the 8 kittens to the shelter, then went back to complete the work on the storm drain, welding the cover on as he had originally planned to do before the discovery.
The next day he went back to check on the drain to make sure everything was OK before moving on. When he did, he saw this kitten (above) in the drain.
He spent the next two hours with his crew, removing the welded-on cover, to get this ninth kitten out, then brought it to the same shelter.
The vet at the shelter found her to be dehydrated, but otherwise fine.
A month and a half later, she’s part of our family.
Thanks Mr. Construction guy. It’s a reminder that there are still good people out there.
