Kitten Runs into Backyard for a Snack but Lands Himself the Perfect Happily Ever After Instead
A kitten ran into a backyard for a snack but landed himself the perfect happily ever after instead.
Spruce the kittenLittle Wanderers NYCAlexa Elliot, a rescue volunteer of Little Wanderers NYC, has been caring for the community cats in her area—feeding them, providing shelter, and getting them spayed/neutered.
A feral cat showed up one day with a little orange kitten running around in the backyard. The cat left the kitten on the porch where the food was, as if she was ready to entrust him to her carer.
“The kitten was around six weeks old at that point. He was curious, calm, and not aggressive in any way. He was different than any other feral kitten,” Alexa shared with Love Meow.

“I began the process of trapping him, and because he is naturally trusting, it only took me a few days.”
