Success Story/Happy Ending A tiny little kitten who follow us to my Dad's grave

Meet Cemen! We found him in the cemetery he follows us going to my Dad's grave until we get back to the highway and he tried to jump up to the car so we decided to bring him home. He is now in his forever home. The last picture is his first bath.

I don’t know what or how much you believe in but if this happened to me on the way to my Mom and Dads grave I’d fully take it as a sign/gift from above from them. Thank you for giving him a home, wishing you both much happiness for the future ❀️

Thanks 😊

u/_calmer_than_you_r_ 19d ago

Yay for you!
Just an fyi, after you got the street dirt off of Cemen, cats do not need baths like dogs do. He will be able to keep himself clean from here on out.
Also, make sure he has a full bowl of dry food always available and canned food twice a day. He probably is a little under weight from living on the streets.
A trip to the vet for a check up and vaccinations is also a good idea, as well as neutering him.
So glad you got him off the streets. Outdoor or indoor/outdoor cats live on average of 50% as long as indoor cats. Enjoy!!

Thank you so much for rescuing this baby. God bless you for that. He's such a precious little soul. Watched the videos as well and it's so adorable how he followed you guys to the graveyard. I'm so glad he has a forever home and a loving family like you guys now. Praying that he gets all the warmth, love, cuddles and comfort that he deserves. Life outside for such a tiny baby is really difficult. I'm not sure but it seems like someone also cut his tail as it doesn't look normal. All in all, thank you OP for rescuing and giving him a home. May you and Cemen bond well and get to live many happy years together. Boosting the post so more people can witness this beautiful story 🐾
