15. Thanks for saving her! We found our own little kitty, "Buddy" on...

...our driveway. My wife heard him crying and looked out to see the kitten looking like he wanted to get back home.

She didn't need to tell me more since we live on a PA state highway, so I ran out to retrieve him.

He ran down the block a few houses to hide in bushes and eventually across the highway. Although he kept running away from me he was easy to follow because he was crying the whole time. I was finally able to grab him from under a bush and toss him into a cat crate, with only a few scratches to my arm.

When I let him loose in our house, he made quick friends with our other two cats. Like he always lived with all of us. So we named him "Buddy".

I posted on all the lost pets sites to see if he was some ones' pet.

A nice lady responded and took him to be vaccinated for us. After she visited with her very young daughter to see him, and a few other clues, I realized she may have been the one who "abandoned" Buddy.

She knew from my posts that I would take care of him and felt guilty.

As soon as the nice lady and her little daughter appeared, they were gone.

And all is still good with our little Buddy.
