Gus the horse and Keke the kitty make friends
 

About five weeks ago some one abandoned a tiny little 6 week old kitten on the road next to my property and home. This little kitty managed to make its way through the trees and was hiding under a shed Marlene uses as a shop. Marlene heard a faint little meow one morning and called me outside. It took me about half an hour to encourage the kitty to come out from under the shed but once out she was quick to purr when petted. She was so skinny you could feel the points on each of her vertebrae. Marlene instantly adopted the kitty and named it Kekie. In the five weeks since finding her Marlene has fed her plenty of food and clean water, and keeps her in the shed at night. She has grown almost twice her size and weight and is turning out to be a playful and sweet little kitten. She will be an outside cat that gets put inside the shed at night to be safe, and has already begun exploring. She discovered Gus, Marlene's palomino Quarter Horse. Over the past week Kekie and Gus have been making friends. I'm sure they are destined to be good pals. These photos were taken this afternoon.

That’s great. It’s just amazing how animals get along. I have a Rottie who hung out with a black & white Dutch Rabbit. They became best friends. The rabbit was kept in a crate in our house. One morning I was calling Jerry our Rottie and he would not leave the rabbit Buttons crate. He always listened to me. I went over to the crate and Buttons had pass sa

Thank you Dan and Marlene for taking care of Kekie.

A very sweet story indeed.

that's too cute Dan !

Such a wonderful story Dan!
You and Marlene have big hearts and the pictures are perfect. Looks like everyone is getting along nicely and Kekie is happy and healthy.

I recall you mentioning finding Kekie on your property and Marlene adopting it on the spot. Cool pictures Dan.

Best Sir,

Bob

awesome Dan.. Now if people could be the same huh! :yes:

Very nice pictures Dan. There are so many abandoned cats that end up feral, it’s great to see one rescued like this and taken into a loving home.

Dan, I would think the kitten would love to be in your lap and listen to music.

Marlene said to tell you all how much she appreciates the heartwarming comments.
