A while ago 3 kittens were taken in by a local rescue having been dumped. There were 3 of them and they, sadly, became known as
The Burns Kittensas some
had used them to stub out cigarettes. Apparantly, the burns were all over their little bodies. They were nursed back to health with TLC and veterinary care.
Two were then rehomed together leaving one little guy by himself. He eventually found a home. This must have been a good year or so ago but these little kittens were absolutely beautiful given their ordeal.
I heard at the weekend that the new owner of the solitary guy has emigrated to USA. It is not the usual story that accompanies that. The lady wrote to the rescue sending a picture of the Burns Kitten (now grown up) enjoying life in his new home in USA. He apparantly looks like he has fallen firmly on his feet as 'King of the Castle' and 'the cat that got the cream'.
It is always great to hear of happy stories but particularly given the horrific start that this guy had at the expense of human beings (if the perpetrators can be considered that)
