Yesterday, on a chilly
outing
with friends, we saw at the
edge of a parking lot
two small, stubby cats
entwined on the pavement.
Love making? No, I realized
that one cat
was very ill and the other
was using its warmth
to protect. Heartbreaking,
yet heart affirming.
Note: this
feral cat was not one of the cats in this observation,
but one that I had encountered a couple of weeks ago.
Heart-rending.
ReplyDeletehey that's a lovely "capture" - and how nice to see our kitty again...
ReplyDelete.......carry on!
I've seen this altruism, too - a three-legged fox lives in town in an old abandoned building. The other foxes bring it food, and I've been told that they even sometimes present it with a stolen dog toy.
ReplyDeleteThat is a wonderful story about the 3-legged fox. Animals have so much to teach us.
