Furry Rescue

I saved a life today. I was driving to work this am, and was turning onto the street my buidling is on, when I noticed a kitten dart under a vehicle that was sitting in the turn lane waiting to turn left. I stopped, rolled down my window and told the guy to stop (he was inching forward), there was a kitten under his car. He looked at me weird and said that he didn't have a kitten. I tell him that its under his car. We both get out of our vehicles and the kitten darts under my car now. I can hear it meowing, so I called for it and it came right to me. I picked him up and he was purring and super friendly, but deathly skinny. I told the guy I could handle it from there, and thanks for stopping - I didn't want the kitten to get squashed. He left and I'm stuck not knowing what to do with this kitten in need, considering I had to be to work in a few mins. The Midland County Animal shelter is on the same road as my building, but their demeanor is horrible and they gas unwanted animals - not an option for this lil' guy. So, I call my mom and see if she can take him to her house until I could pick him up after work. He downed some water and bread before she got there, the bread quieted him down a bit. He must have been starving. I can't wait to get out of work and introduce him to his new siblings!

Any ideas on names? He's going to the vet asap and they'll need one...
 
Roadkill

I let mine name themselves. I think this name fits. My two are Trouble and Gabby (doesn't shut up).
 
Props on rescuing the little guy! :thumbsup:

Patches O'Houlihan

"If you can dodge traffic, you can dodge a ball."
:roll: Good one Jeff! What color is he? Patches may work. My rescue cat had Ricky Bobby stick with him when I got him. I usually call him Ricky but he's a great cat. Very well tempered and definitely talkative. He seems to think he's a dog sometimes and begs right along with the three dogs. :lol:
 
Correction - my fam confirmed to me that the kitten is a female. Still need names! I like the Dodge Ball reference, but I dunno about Patches for a girl. She's brown with dark stripes.
