Gao the Itty Bitty Roadside Kitty

thebeesknees

My week has been devoured by this little monster.
Her name is "Gao"แก้ว.

I didn't want a cat, but when life throws these little surprises your way, I think it's best to accept the responsibility if you in the right position to do so.

badjoojoo and I found her yesterday (or, as others would argue, she found us) on our drive back home from breakfast. She almost crossed the road, out in front of the car, before ducking back into some small, thin bushes against a tall concrete fence which tightly hugged the side of the busy road.

Joojoo asked said exactly what I was thinking, "Was that a kitten?"

We parked the car to inspect, and sure enough, a kitten it was!

So, after lunch, we took her to the vet because...well...she was filthy, covered in fleas, and probably came with a myriad of other health issues. The doc cleaned her up, gave her some medicine, de-flea'd her nicely, and told us to bring her back in a week for her shots.

He also told us that she was approx. 2 months old, which is allllmost too young to be away from mom (12 weeks/3 months is the optimum recommendation for removing kittens from their mother). What a tough initiation into life :<

But, she's found us, now. We'll do our best to ensure that the rest of her life is lived out in comfort.
Her favorite place in the world right now seems to be our warm, cozy laps...

If you want to help us out with her vet costs and stuff, I am open for commissions. See this journal for more info!
