Catnappings do not happen all too often in this world thankfully, but when they do their effect is devastating. The relationship we build with cats is an incredibly deep and special one, even if we have just met and when the pawrent in this story saw their tiny kitten being scooped up right in front of their eyes and bundled into a car that sped off, well, you can imagine just how heartbroken they were. But it would turn out that their heartbreak about losing their cat would be the very thing that would come to save several animals and children who were in need of saving. It all came undone when our pawrent, with the help of social media savvy friend managed to locate the person who committed the clawminal offence of stealing their kitten. Upon arriving at their home the two were greeted with several animals of all different kinds living in filth and squalor in the person's front yard as well as a house that was in a state of disrepair. And while it was not all too difficult for them to get their kitten back, they had a feeling that there was more to be done and that is when they inquired as to whether there might be kids living in these terrible conditions.
Now sure, sometimes it is not our place to get involved in the lives of other people. Most people are just trying to do their best and no one is perfect in this world. But falling short of perfect is rather different to subjecting the creatures and kids in your care to sub-par conditions. After all, you are responsible for their wellbeing and while they might not have the latest toys, gadgets or even enough space. All a nurturing home needs is the care and comfort a pawrent can provide. But in this case it was clear that the pawrent was not well enough to see the mess they had made and was likely causing more harm than good overall.
And in a situation like that there is no looking the other way or hoping that you have misunderstood the situation. Which is what prompted this hooman to brave the consequences and make the call that no one wants to make. So if ever you find yourself in such a position, know that it is ok to make the first move and that while it might be tough, it is often for the best. You may save much more than just the cats and critters you see.
