You would be surprised what happens to people rescuing animals. A very young cat had 3 kittens in our side yard and started to move them to the backyard but left one behind due to a sudden down pour (rain.) The abandoned kitten woke us up out of bed demanding a search party. The next day we returned the kitten to it's Mother. The happy Mother (Yoder) adopted us to only give us one more litter before we put a stop to her population explosion. We joined R.A.I.N. (Rescue Animals In Need) and the rest is history.
