A stray dog was found trembling by the side of the road, ribs showing and eyes full of fear 💔
Thanks to a kind person, he’s safe for now, but still needs food, treatment, and a loving home.

So Tuesday evening when I was sitting in the hospital my partner sends me a picture of 2 small black kittens.🖤🖤 His dad had found the poor things on the road.🥺 They were quite boney but after a week of kmr and wet noms they are slowly gaining weight.

2 small black kittens eating some wet food on a blue chair.

A small long haired black kitten, sleeping on the floor.

A small black kitten sleeping on a brown footstool.

2 small black kittens in a cage. Inside is a small litter box, food and kmr milk. (They did not end up staying in there. XD)

Kiki Mae: She is the pudge. And we're just mere servants and peasants.

Pandora: A fluffy demon who summons herself in the bathroom mirror.
