A young kitten was found abandoned in the woods at only a couple of weeks old.

Rescuers who found the ginger girl are unsure where she came from. Was she abandoned by heartless humans? Her mother? Or had tragedy befallen her mother and she was left alone in the wilderness?
Sadly, this happens every day, all over the world.
For the baby girl though, her luck was about to change.
When rescuers discovered her, their hearts broke looking into her sad eyes.

She was covered in fleas, extremely weak and had minor injuries. No one could imagine what her short life had been like so far.
Rushing her to the veterinarian, they were determined not to give up on her. She was given medications and the food she desperately needed.

Due to the terrible condition she was found in, she needed to be put on an IV just to survive.

She was monitored closely over the next 2 weeks by her doctors and her rescuers. With the dedication and love they gave her, she began to feel better!

Her injuries all healed and she was better enough to be taken off the IV. Her weight was now at a healthy level and she was eating on her own, even ready to play a bit!

Without the caring people willing to put in the time and effort to save this little soul, her life would have ended painfully and alone. Now, she has the sparkle of life in her eyes, no more sadness.
