  Fwd: I found a kitten tonight while jogging...
The email I had to send out tonight. OH MY GOSH. I even was wearing headphones! And I STILL heard him crying. He wanted my attention, but didn't want me to actually pick him up so, you know, that was fun.

Who else does this happen to? WHO?!

Anyway, he's a real cute little thing. I'm pretty sure it's a he but can't be sure because he is a scared little guy that keeps his tail between his legs.

I can't keep him past tonight; I'm already hosting a stray cat and her three babies at my house, on top of my two regular cats (who have been making themselves scarce lately, surprise, surprise). I don't think the roommate will be too happy to find out that my bathroom has been converted this evening into a cat den.

So anyway, there were some interested parties in my kittens when they're ready.. How about in a kitten who is already ready? He's grey, very small, very scared, but VERY SWEET. The second you pick him up, he purrs louder than any cat I have ever heard. Honestly. And that's a good cat. :) I guarantee he'd be sleeping soundly beside me right now if I could let him in my room (but this is where the kittens sleep!).

Please pass this on to anyone you know who may want a kitty. I really have to find him somewhere to go or take him to the Humane Society, and I think I'll have a meltdown if I have to do that.. He was doing the paw thing in his little cat carrier tonight and, ahh.. Well, this sweet little guy deserves better than what he's had so far in his short little life.

Please get in touch with me ASAP - via email or phone at 954-***-****.

Thanks :)

Making a difference

A small boy lived by the ocean. He loved the creatures of the sea, especially the starfish, and he spent much of his time exploring the seashore.

One day the boy learned there would be a minus tide that would leave the starfish stranded on the sand.

When the tide went out, he went down to the beach, began picking up the stranded starfish, and tossing them back into the ocean.

An elderly man who lived next door came down to the beach to see what the boy was doing. Seeing the man's quizzical expression, the boy paused as he approached. "I'm saving the starfish!" the boy proudly declared.

When the neighbor saw all of the stranded starfish he shook his head and said: "I'm sorry to disappoint you, young man, but if you look down the beach, there are stranded starfish as far as the eye can see. And if you look up the beach the other way, it's the same. One little boy like you isn't going to make much of a difference."

The boy thought about this for a moment. Then he reached his small hand down to the sand, picked up another starfish, tossed it out into the ocean, and said: "Well, I sure made a difference for that one!"
