We have an indoor cat that was less than 3 weeks old when we found her. She had an eyeball ripped out, skin shredded, and was full of infection. We nursed her back to health and she just turned 2. She is fun, affectionate, loving and appreciative.
We found her the day after my wife's father died...while standing in front of a house she grew up in.
I imagine the kitten was abandoned along with her siblings on the side of the road and subsequently attacked.
@peterpanDon't even joke about driving pets far from home and abandoning them.......and if you weren't joking #%×& you
