Reply #62: Some Ruskies had put her out on the street

[Patiod]

(Sorry for the ethnic slur, but anyone who leaves a little kitten outside to fend for itself while the family goes back to visit the Motherland deserves worse than the only-moderately-perjoritive "ruskie")

Neighbors of a friend's sister left kitten outside while they went on vacation.

After a few days, kitten came over to sister's house, planted its butt down on the front step, and started yelling. Friend took pity on it, and took it to the vet, who diagnosed it as starving and dehydrated, with ticks, fleas and earmites. Friend then brought it to us, saying "if he doesn't get along with my cat, he's yours. And his name is Bernie, 'cause he's Flyers black white and red" (Alert feline connaisseurs will already note a problem with the story -- in that black, white and red cats are not male)

Anyway, the kitten annoyed his cat, so she ended up with us, where she annoyed Andy the big tomcat we were boarding, and earned the name "The Little" (as in "where's Andy and the little one?") Now she lives with and annoys us on a daily basis.
