I would take the kitten in if I could near it...He's not afraid to come right up to me when I have the food for him. He inhales it like a little vacuum and then runs away, and over to their porch, where the little kids are all around him and talking to him and he seems very comfortable with them. He will let me sit by him while he eats, but I've been biten twice now when I've tried to pet him. I cleaned the bites very well and there's no infection present and are healing just fine, so I'm not worried...I've had alot worse bites than this little guy can do, he's just scared, and starving!

What I cant understand is how these people cannot see his bones, or his mite infested ears(they're black all the way to the tips) or his dirty matted fur and dirt caked nose and goopy eyes! But their children look as bad as this kitten...There's a Children's Social Services car there once a week already. We dont have a Humane Society or any other animal help organizations here, so we are pretty much on our own when it comes to helping abused or neglected animals....that's why my house and barn are full and my husband is saying NO MORE. I guess I will always keep food out for him as long as he's coming here looking for it. I cant stand to see a starving animal!!!
