Eight weeks is a short time to be happy, to feel safe, to believe in a particular kind of world. However, that was all the time that adorable, frosted-gray and white Yasmin was allowed. Now the unexpected, unwanted kitten is trying to understand her new world, in a cage, without her mamma, with barking dogs just a wall away.

But Yasmin is luckier than many kittens. The people that her mamma surprised with kittens let her stay for a crucial phase of her life. Yasmin’s mother gave her the food and care to make her healthy. People handled her and made her a house pet.

Yasmin is sad, but she could be happy again, if someone quickly takes her home to a world she understands.
