Blessed and Broken

**momtomany** · 06-16-2008, 07:52 PM

This morning at work, someone came in the office and told me there was a kitty outside by our handicap ramp and it appeared to have a broken back. I went outside and sure enough this baby, who looked to be about 4 to 5 months old, was dragging it back legs. I immediately lined a box and got the baby inside. Gave it a small drink as it appeared and little dehydrated and called a friend to see if she could take it to her vet since Mondays are really hard days for me at work. I cried to and from meeting my friend. It turns out this sweet baby was a girl and she had been shot with a BB. The BB had punctured the spinal cord and she was paralyzed. The decision was made to allow her to go to the rainbow bridge. God only knows how that kitty ended up at my office. You would have to see to know how this defies the odds. I guess God knew this baby would be taken care and for that he blessed me, but my heart still is broken and the tears are still coming. What scares me more is where I work and the idea that someone shot this kitty. Please say a few prayer for this sweet baby.
Please add a few prayers for the 4 kittens, tied up in a potato sack, and thrown out of car onto a busy road. Only one survived, and is the care of the woman who saw it happen.
People who shoot, people who throw out these precious babies..........I guess we need to pray for a conversion of their hearts.

This definitely brings tears to my eyes. RIP kittens who weren't even given a chance at life.

Sigh, this is so heartbreaking. I doubt that there will be a conversion of the hearts of the people who do this kind of thing, no matter how many prayers are sent up, unless and until the same thing happens to them. Only then will they get it. RIP, sweet little kitten. Now you can walk free and play hard at the Bridge. (And bless you for helping this little one to find that peace.)

Oh, my. I am sorry, so very, very sorry. Play hard at the RB, family of kitties.

Absolutely heartbreaking!

Rest in Peace sweet little one.

I think that kitten just knew that YOU would help!!!! And you did try... Sleep softly, little baby....

This life was certainly not kind to these babies. They are safe and healthy at the RB and no people, like those who thoughtlessly harmed them, will ever be near them again. They will have loving guardians forever.

Godspeed to the Bridge, babies

I hope these kittens will find a child arriving at the Rainbow Bridge, also whose life was cut short by illness or human cruelty, to befriend, to love, and to enter into heaven with them forever.
