Rescuing a kitten

On our way out this morning we saw a terrified kitten running across the road. My husband ran back to the house, got the cat basket and put on gardening gloves. He managed to lift it out of the brambles where it was hiding. We put it in the basket and took it to the vet.

We thought it was feral, but they said it wasn't. They gave it some food and water and it immediately tucked in. They'll do whatever is medically necessary - it's probably got fleas and worms and then they'll try and find it a new home. Shouldn't have any problems - it's beautiful, black and quite fluffy. If we didn't have a cat already we would have had it ourselves.
