Shelter Kitten – Shaggy
When Shaggy realized that he and his sister were trapped in a box, he probably didn’t worry. Shaggy trusted his calico sister, Sienna, to lead him out of trouble. The gold and white little boy isn’t quite as brave as his sister. Of course, calicos are known for their “cattitude”. Golden cats are known for their mellowness and cuddling.
Still, even Shaggy’s trust in his sister, humans and life in general couldn’t keep him from worrying as the small space inside the box sizzled. Cruelly abandoned, on a concrete driveway, in 100-degree heat, even the tiny optimist Shaggy realized that he’d likely die, after only eight weeks of life.
But someone curious opened the box. Now Shaggy and Sienna are hopeful, waiting in the shelter.
