Lucky, Our New Kitten
Kitty Story: Our friends, the Bannings, have two labs. One of the labs found four kittens behind their shed. It carried them to the back door. The mother had been shot and killed by neighbor boys, and only one of the kittens lived. They bottle fed it for 10 days, but Karen was allergic to cats, so Janet told us about it and we went down there to see it. Daymon told us the story and Janet said to Sam, "Don't you want to save this kitty?" Sam said, "How did I get involved in this?" (after we had to have our dog put to sleep, he had said that we wouldn't be having any other animals). We ended up taking her home. Tara kept it for two weeks before her kids left for the summer and they fed it and had a great time with it. We have had her since Memorial Day and she is growing up, but still pretty little! It is VERY playful and attacks anything, even if it is not moving:) The grandkids love it and the first thing Andi says when she comes over is, "Where is the kitty?" We named her Lucky because she was lucky to be alive!

What a cute story :0) Not only did Lucky survive losing her mother, she also survived being mauled by all of the grandkids..that IS one Lucky cat ;0) The pics are adorable and it looks like dad found a new friend ♥ love youguys!
She is so precious and tiny! I especially love the picture of grandma feeding her. :) That's so sad about her family and mother. Those dang neighbor kids! She is so sweet looking though, too bad they have to grow up!
If only they wouldn't turn into cats!
