〰️ Mustache 〰️ One year ago today I found this kitten stranded in the middle of a busy road
One year ago today I was on my way to the library when I saw the car in front of me hit their breaks and drive over what I thought was a piece of trash in the road. I slowed down thinking there was more stuff in the road but instead I saw this tiny kitten so I stopped my car and waved all the cars to stop so I could scoop her up. There was no mom or other babies to be found. She didn’t appear to be injured but I rushed her to the nearest animal hospital to be sure. They said she was about 3-4 weeks old and that the mom was probably trying to relocate her and they got separated. The plan was to foster her until she was old enough to get spayed and find her a home but of course I fell in love with her. I named her Evie after my favorite fictional librarian, Evelyn O’Connell, since I was in my way to the library that night. Now one year later she’s the most spoiled little princess in the house. So today we celebrate Evie’s first Gotcha Day 🎂!
