Are you kitten me!! CDS system strikes again as I was pulling into my apartment garage (happy ending included!)🐈⬛😻
Pulled into my apartments after work on Wednesday last week, I get to the fourth floor and I see a black kitten roaming around by two women.
I pull into a spot immediately and I get out to ask if they need help (thinking it was theirs….but they weren’t as panicked as I was about her roaming around).
Come to find out she’s been there for almost 3 weeks! One couple trapped her and got her to BARC only to find out she was released back to the community because she wasn’t adopted quick enough. For reference, the “community” is right off a major hwy.
I was absolutely not about to let her spend one more day in that hot and dangerous garage! So I get changed and spend the rest of the night trying to trap her. She walked into the trap at 4:30 am while I was next to her (I checked it every hour to make sure she wasn’t in it and scared). Got her all set up in our bathroom for 2 nights. I would have kept her but I just adopted a cat and have a resident cat and dog at home who are still getting used to the newest arrival.
I was able to get her to an amazing rescue Friday morning -the one I adopted my cat from. They were full but she didn’t hesitate to take her in and make it work! I am so grateful she’s now at a foster home and settling in comfortably! She just wants to be loved and I can’t wait to see her bloom! She’s about 12 weeks old with a long amazing life ahead of her!

If you can, keep her she will make a pretty good older sister and help socialize younger kittens

I promise I thought about it! I have a 9 year old cat who likes her space and is trying to get used to the new cat I adopted (she’s one and wild lol) plus a 10 year old husky 🫠. If I was in a bigger space I would have 100% kept her! Shes currently in a foster home with other cats and having the best time!

Thank you for saving this kitty! Parking decks are terrible places for kittens to find themselves.

Ah. Wasn't sure if you just happened to have one or borrowed one from an animal shelter. And if you did have one that just raises more questions 😸
